A review by boogiebeez
Men Without Women by Haruki Murakami

4.0

DRIVE MY CAR 4.5/5 (so simple yet so good, characters and their interactions are marvelous, i wanna watch the movie so bad)
YESTERDAY 3.5/5 (hella funny, really unique but a lil scattered)
AN INDEPENDENT ORGAN 3/5 (low-key scary, TW: eating disorders, suicide, literal lovesickness, weird characterization of the one gay character, but still an ok story
SCHEREZADE 3/5 (the stories scherezade told were interesting, but the story as a whole left me with so many questions i can't even write. would have been better if it was longer)
KINO 4/5 (amazing until that sorry excuse for an ending)
SAMSA IN LOVE 1.5/5 (please sir i don't wanna hear about your genitals. basically no redeeming qualities for this one boooo)
MEN WITHOUT WOMEN 3/5 (gets points for making me cry, cute torward the end but still talked too much about genitals)

overall a pretty good collection of stories, will read more murakami
