A review by thechanelmuse
Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata

3.0

“I no longer knew what standard to live by. Until now, my body had belonged to the convenience store, even when I wasn’t working. Sleeping, keeping in good physical shape, and eating nutritiously were all part of my job. I had to stay healthy for work.”

"You eliminate the parts of your life that others find strange—maybe that's what everyone means when they say they want to 'cure' me."

This is an unusual yet compelling book.
