Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata

3.0

i actually really loved this. i think it's an interesting read and a novella you can read from cover to cover in one sitting. i probably would recommend it to anyone because of how easy it is to finish the book and how bizarre and fascinating the main character is. however, there were times in the book where the writing and the conversations between the characters felt so extremely unrealistic that it was off-putting as a reader. i don't know if it's the translation or if it's the book itself, but at the end of the day these little things annoyed me so much that i had to give it 3 stars.
