Relics of the past.

This book was captivating could put it down. I was team X all the way.

The best book I’ve read on this platform by far

Unlike Takashi, the other boys in his gang weren't there just because they wanted attention. Although that was part of it, they were mostly there for the excitement and thrill of witnessing Takashi's actions against others. All they cared about was if the thing they were doing was exciting and fun, a consequence of childhood naivete.
