Conversations on Love in Reading with Namjoon

May 17, 2025 mery☆ rated it it was amazing · review of another edition

this book resonated with my heart in ways i could never ever fully explain. but what i can say is that if you ever were to dissect me and my soul, it would pretty much look like the words in this book.
although nonfiction, it made me cry and cry and cry on multiple occasions because it was as if someone finally understood my feelings and then put them into words.
