4.5

This compilation of Manga stories was so unique and had an intense amount of symbolism and reflection that feels that I’ll need to read it again to gain an understanding. That being said I loved the Birthday Girl and The Seventh Man especially because of the inspiring messaging and for highlighting importance of introspection. I have yet to read a full Haruki Murakami book but this has absolutely inspired me to do so!!
