The book was good, the main character has autism. I didn’t like the marketing, claiming the book is quirky and funny is ableist considering the amount of discrimination the character experiences for being disabled

i really loved this book - sometimes I was a little put off but I adore Sayaka’s writing! A lot of the times I found myself wondering what may be missing in translation;    at the parts where Keiko would talk like her coworkers I feel lacked in English, purely because dialect is hard to write. Still enjoyed this - a wonderful beach read!
