The Frolic of the Beasts by Yukio Mishima
4.0
dark mysterious sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book just continued to get better until the very end. I will admit the introduction was quite slow and although Mishimas writing style is beautiful it was also at times unnecessarily detailed.

With that being said the writing was still beautiful and the story was gripping. This book is sad, tense, and complicated. I found myself to really like Koji to then detest him and back and forth throughout. The same can be said for each of the 3 main characters.
