I Want to Eat Your Pancreas
Author: Yoru Jumino

            I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, look I know it sounds weird but it is really not. IWTEYP is a manga in which a sick girl whose pancreas is failing, meets an antisocial boy and create a great friendship. It made me emotional, hope it makes you emotional as well. :)

Call Me by Your Name
Author: André Aciman
Director: Luca Guadagnino

            Overall a good book and movie, both, very emotional and I also recommend watching Call Me by Your Name: Movie Soundtrack Explained online. The book and movie are about a summer fling between Elio and his parents’ summer guest. I must say, at first everything is okay, but then it hits you, it really does :( I really recommend both, they’ll change your life, I promise!
