rjsori 's review for:
The Tatami Galaxy
by Tomihiko Morimi
3.75
WHATTA RIDE! this book was one of the most trippiest, yet relatable books I've ever read. The book follows the antisocial narrator through the exploration of parallel timelines examining how joining 4 different organizations in college would help achieve his "rose-colored" perfect college life; however, in each of these realities, His fate is intertwined with Ozu, his troublemaker "friend". My description doesn't do this story justice.
Personally, the reason why I rated the book so highly was how immersed I felt reading. There were situations that the narrator and I had that pertained to the eventual regrets and struggles navigating college life, and looking back if you had joined a different club or had a different set of friends, you would have the "dream" college experience. The narrator was also unlikable and I actually enjoyed that because it added to the complexity of the story. The only gripe I had was that the story although was meant to repeat 4 different universes got old reading the same things, so I skimmed through the similar parts.
