narcissisticsoul 's review for:

No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai
4.0
challenging dark reflective tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Honestly, it's 3.9 out of 5 and I'm quite adament about that because I think rating it any higher or lower just sounds.. unbelievable to me. 

The book definitely has its downsides and many times throughout the book, I considered locking myself up in the mental asylum too because Yozo was taking me down with him. But undeniably, I don't think any book as come quite as close as this book has in understanding me and for that, I hated every second. The ending especially.. "he was an angel" I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!! Whatever man... 

At least now I know the path I cannot end up on.
