I don‘t know. This one wasn‘t really for me. Maybe I wasn‘t the right audience for it, or just in the right headspace, but I can‘t really find anything I liked out of it. However, there are some dark parts of this book that will stay with me.
I‘m torn about this one. I really dig the characters‘ fight against tradition, swimming upstream, that fight for individuality/identity while being completely empty inside. I really liked that. But this just fell a little short for me, and I can‘t figure out why…I wonder if the movie version would be better. My #BookSpin for October! ☺️
Very interesting and informative read so far and only a few pages in
Yeah, this 120pg. book packs it in. Lui meets Ama at a bar and becomes so transfixed by his forked tongue that she follows him home. The next day he takes her to meet Shiba, the guy who does all his tattoos and body modifications. A triangle ensues. Written in the early 00‘s, this book has much to say about Japanese subculture, disaffected youth. Narrated by a seemingly unlikable Lui, before you know it she has you wrapped around her finger. Pick!
4⭐️Read this in one sitting. It‘s about tattoos and body modification and a bisexual male/male/female love triangle and murder and punks and Barbie girls and split tongues and street thugs..... and the ending 😲🥺🤬😶
