Vanishing World by Sayaka Murata
1.0
I have read a couple of Murata’s books and they always shock. I usually embrace the weirdness. However with this read, I wish I had it in me to actually DNF books
The concept had such promise but the book just lacked depth. It could have maybe worked as a 50 page short story?
It was so repetitive. It didn’t really feel like it had a plot. It just repeated the blurb effectively throughout the book. It didn’t flow. It felt never ending.
Then it did end, on a paedophilic note, that left the story on such a sour repulsive note that made me wish I hadn’t read it at all.
