A review by annixl
All the Lovers in the Night by Mieko Kawakami

  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

3.0

I think this could easily be a 5 star read for some people. I loved the writing, the main character was so easy to connect with and build in  detail but for me the content just wasn’t my cup of tea because i was hoping for more plot while this book is i’d say 90% character focused. I don’t think I’m in the position to relate to the main character at all and i found the ending a little disappointing, not because it was poorly written or anything, just because i was expecting something different.

Overall i did enjoy reading this book, it was my first book of hers i read after randomly picking it up and I will definitely be looking into another book of hers in the future.
