A review by melisbooked
Tokyo Ueno Station by Yu Miri

reflective sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

What drew me to this book was the conversation it had about poverty, and the depth of despair that comes from being in that circumstance. It was very melancholic and a bit disjointed at times.
