Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata
5.0
emotional funny hopeful lighthearted sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I absolutely loved this book. The main character is heavily autistic coded, and absolutely charming. I adored her from the very start. 

I really enjoyed her matter of fact narration, and the loving attention she put into describing different aspects of the convenience store.

I loved the ending too,
it was so satisfying and nice to see her follow her own wants and let go of neurotypical societal demands and expectations placed on her which she neither agreed with or cared about.


Definitely reccomend :)
