It would be better if there were less mention of Sasuke. Everything is cool: Sakura became strong (maybe even strongest) kunoichi, she is very smart, becomes assertive and influential. But there’s always Saske as her motivation. I understand that this pairing is canon, but it doesn’t make it better, it’s really bad and looks like some kind of obsession. 5/5 for this novel if there’s no Sasuke, 4-/5 because he’s here.
