I love this story! I like how it's both dramatic and level headed with how the characters traumas are. Maybe because i read it on the 3rd time in one sitting but I'm not feeling the time jump then flashback style per volume since it feels disruptive to the flow but I still like the essence of the story and the minor details in it.
The ending felt a little too short in my opinion too. I feel like we could've split the whole paul and j clearing out the air with their feelings and j finally meeting jean and rita (his daughter) in separate chapters (about 2-3 more chapter then extras i feel) but well, that's that.
Good for diving into complex characters, kinda ok for exploring homosexuality and transsexuality (but then again, this was mainly set in the 50s - 60s), not so good with the short ending

But definitely worth rereading again
