Okay, this was a weird one and not the usual kind of book I read. I picked it up because it was an interesting synopsis, I saw it on a few book lists, it is on the shorter end so I knew I would be able to get through listening to it (audiobook challenge!), & finally: I miss Japanese convenience stores!!
I liked the audiobook narrator and the way she voiced Keiko I think really gave the character life and made me understand her more. She is a difficult character to connect with, though– but I think that might be the point. I don't want to say too much and ruin the book.... honestly, I'd love to talk with someone about it and examine it – so, I definitely recommend this one for book clubs!
Honestly, give this one a try and keep an open mind.
