A review by muniemoe
Go: A Coming of Age Novel by Kazuki Kaneshiro

4.0

The coming of age novel that have a simple storyline. Even though at the beginning, the family introduction is kind of unique. The storyline is about Sugihara a Korean-Japanese nationality high school student that struggling to grow up between these two cultures.

The characters is all well drawn and attract me to read more. Especially Sugihara character, his narrations about what he is going through is quite interesting. And it does show  on his rough personality  but at the same time he is smart and curious about life.

I got mixed feelings while reading this . The heartwarming relationship between Sugihara and Sakurai, the way Sugihara  talk about his relationship with his parents and his friends. And the big parts of it being treated like a  foreigner even though he is fitting in. This could be a fully YA as it is discuss a lot of things that quite make us think a lot. I enjoy reading this because it is compact and a fast read.
