momoxshi 's review for:

The Woman in the Purple Skirt by Natsuko Imamura
4.0
mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

When it says voyeuristic, it definitely means voyeuristic. Ironic that the woman in the yellow cardigan says gossip (focusing on other people's lives) is something that's forced upon her at work and she doesn't enjoy it, and yet she's the one obsessing over the woman in the purple skirt's life.

Very short with an ambiguous ending. But this is definitely a fun read.
