So this is an underrated gem it is a sociorealistic story about a gang of boys living in the slum, the trauma they have been through and how it colors you unable to accept some things, but also how you can grow over time through love. It really touched my heart

One of my favorites, that really touched me and left me both very sad and heartwarmed two men loving each in a time where it wasn't easy. I guess you can say it is a story that is a lot about how love can be conveyed in many alternative ways but never the less just as strongly

This is a special kind of sad. Amazing story, taking place in a world with a sad premise of suppression, war and tough choices. Interesting concept and that delves into dilemmas that makes your heart ache. Absolutely one of my favorites!

This is a great one. It deals with a lot of suicidality and self-harm and heavy feelings of not being able to turn life around and be a person you can live or at least not hate. It is very well written and I feel the characters are så nuanced. I felt intense sadness many times and it's seldom that I feel so sad for not only the Mc but the 'bad guy' as well, even though his actions were often despicable. I really recommend this one.

So this was an emotional rollercoaster for me. It's so frustrating and sad. Themes are poverty, trauma, abuse, violence, suicidal themes and much more. The first chapters seems rushed but they are just like a 'prequel' to the actual story, which is interesting. The ending gave me mixed feelings but I also somehow felt it was the right ending for the story. I am glad I stood out the frustration but damn it hurt my heart good on the way there. I ended up really liking it.

So this is actually really sneet and wholesome but it also acces just a bit.

It deals with loss of family member and it deals with having to give up on something you truly love.
