Totally Studio Ghibli Vibes
My first audiobook of the year; I wanted to start off with something light and fun. And it was indeed light and fun. The story was interesting and the characters were very well put out. Some characters made me resent them at first and then absolutely love them in the end. Kitiko the cat is also such a fun character. Also, the little story within the main story made me feel like I actually read two complete stories. The narrator did a great job in imitating different voices for each characters' dialogues. Even inclding the Kitiko the cat. Hahha. Very cute. If there is anything I could change it would be the title. It's not bad but could have been something better, attention-catching.
