very similar to EARTHLINGS in that keiko finds herself not being able to be a part of society’s “factory” (but an entirely different tone) CONVENIENCE STORE WOMAN was a very relatable read as a neurodivergent person myself. i didn’t get much more out of it beyond that, but it was nice to feel seen.

I personally found the book to be boring but I only kept reading since it was so short and I wanted to see how it would end.

An challenging look at society and what it means to exist within and without societies expectations. i found the perspective unique and trying at times, a balance i believe the author was going for. i really enjoyed getting into the narrators head and experiencing their perspective. i liked the descriptions of her sensations and how she engaged with the world that often felt foreign to her. i am glad i read it
