A review by whimsicallyreading
Rainbirds by Clarissa Goenawan

3.0

The writing flows really well I guess, as expected from the writer of The Perfect World of Miwako Sumida (which I did read earlier this year and do love it better, especially for the plot and the characters).

However... It is kinda disappointing to see how vague the denouement of Keiko's murder as I still barely have any idea about who did it. Was it really Seven Stars' mother? I feel like the ending could use some clearer strings in some points.

Also, the ending really reminds me of Murakami's works, Norwegian Wood, in which the story ended with the MC calling up his love interest, Midori...
