xbonbonx 's review for:

No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai
2.5
dark sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

My opinion would have changed if I had read this physically, but because I listened to the audiobook. I don't like it. The narrator was meh; at times, you can hear him drink water, and he makes mouth sounds. There are moments when he would repeat lines, I don't know if that was intentional or...But I couldn't focus

As for the story, it was also meh, just a sad man who experienced bad things and runs away from problems when he overthinks.
