I liked this book a lot, but I found that its kinda hard for me to put into words the reason(s) why. 
I really like Mishima's writing and I am very excited to read more from him. The book is written in a very realistic way. What I mean with this is that though things happen that are quite 'out there', it still felt like I could perfectly imagine it happening. 
Overall I liked it a lot, but damn that poor poor kitty :(
