I did enjoy the small tidbits of world-building around Natsuki's belief in Popinpobopia, and
I thought we would've gotten a longer narrative through her childhood,
I enjoyed the concept Murata created, and was drawn in to read more when she used it to explore Natsuki's feelings and reactions to the mistreatment of her by the adults around her, but I feel the book ultimately veered too hard into shock-value territory, and caused any potential messages or analysis to be flung out.
