A review by vulmikarable
Earthlings by Sayaka Murata

5.0

This is a mystery with plenty of unpredictable events to unfold.

Popinpobopians - presumably aliens (or more or less) disguised as humans who wish not to be bound by societal norms and idealism.

Earthlings - normal human beings worked up to satisfy other earthlings' expectations.

This novel is strange, baffling, horrifying, and ludicrous. Truly, expect the unexpected.
