Pros : the writing style is amazing the way she creates such a dark atmosphere just with the inner thoughts of the main character in otherwise normal scenarios is unique and intriguing. The shock factor is nice without being hurtful. The way they speak about japanese ppl vs foreigners feels very wrong and i can't tell if it's a reality but it made me feel uncomfortable. This book also presents the thought process of a woman who sleeps around(in a mix of issues and sex positivity) and the pain of living with a mental illness. The only reason I have such a bad grade is because it was a painful read either because English is not my first language so i had to read and reread sentences or because of the pacing.
