Convenience Store Woman is a fantastic book by Sayaka Murata, and an excellent read and introduction to her work! I loved this book and the way she made Shiraha such a detestable character so well! I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to get into translated fiction! The book has such a wholesome and hopeful vibe that really emphasises Keiko's loneliness throughout.
