I liked the structure a lot because I'm the type of person who likes stories which start somewhere unexpected.Įach of the 5 chapters are very interesting. We don't get much information about her past, and we only get some slight clues that she was a former soldier and seems to be following someone's orders. Unlike being in a boring chronological order, the novel starts in a very unusual way: we see Violet carrying out her normal duties as an "Auto-Memories Doll" for the first 5 chapters. And by doing this we also get to know the lives of those people as well.
By writing letters for other people, Violet learns the meaning of emotions other than love as well, as she encounters different people in different situations with different feelings to be conveyed to their receiver.
Along with that, she learns to understand their emotions as well, ultimately to comprehend something someone important to her said a long time ago.Īlthough the idea of someone finding the meaning of "I love you" is one that has been explored quite often before, the method used to find this complex emotion's meaning is unique. Violet travels around the world to help her clients express their feelings to their receivers. The story is mainly set in a country called Leidenschaftlich. This is a beautifully crafted story, pretty good to be the first work of Akatsuki Kana, I do sincerely hope she writes more stories. really descriptive narration enables the reader to picture the scenes perfectly, as if he/she was really there. This novel has the power to play with your emotions to such extent that you end up thinking about what you read for weeks, let alone days. Basically, reading the novel won't guarantee what you want to know.Įven though my expectations were very high before I read this, it still managed to surprise me in every single chapter (not necessarily in a good way). After reading this 3 times, I decided to update this review a bit.īefore I start, if you're wanting to know more from watching the anime, I'll tell you this: the anime has done what the novel hasn't and vice versa.
