Rise by Amanda Sun
3.0
Booktubeathon challenge #5: Read a book completely outside ✔️
Actual rating: 3.5
Is it weird to almost like this novella more than the actual trilogy - because I think I do. I still find it weird how the dialogue is built up like a reverse J-Pop song tho. Like instead of adding a few words in English, you have here a few words in Japanese.
For example: "Did you really do that!?" *Nods* "Sugoi!"
Or: "Nani? Are you crazy?"
What even is the purpose of those Japanese words being there?
