Considering DNF. 😅 I just feel the tropes are.. tropey. This alluded-to antagonist is written so stupidly edgy, it’s giving me secondhand embarrassment.

Very cozy and introspective. A little too slow and the conversations felt like they dragged quite a bit.

I'm glad I gave this one a second shot. The first time I picked it up I was put off by all the politically focused stuff but this book's actually really funny and their emails to each other are so beautiful.

This book was very well written but I hated the main character every second of every page. He was insufferable.

From the provocative and challenging to the emotional and quiet, Japanese literary fiction tends to be nuanced, introspective, and minimalistic. These books contain layered cultural commentary and may lean on psychological, surreal, or fantastical elements to convey their message.
