Life For Sale by Yukio Mishima
4.5
adventurous dark funny reflective fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I read this entire book in maybe 4-5 sittings, which is a testament to how engaging I found the story. This book offers a unique perspective about life and the main character only finds the meaning in his life after multiple attempts of being killed. There is ultimately meaning in what may seem like the meaningless. I just wished the ending had a bit more resolution, I wasn’t entirely satisfied. But I enjoyed the storytelling using humor to uplift the dark themes this book explores, and I would highly recommend this book.
