mmefish's review
I have no idea what's happening or where the "plot" is going. 180 pages felt like 300.
It started as a normal enough novel: a young woman loses her sister, then loses her memories from a concussion, starts questioning her life etc etc. Now everyone has some kind of supernatural power and nothing is really happening. The writing is all over the place and I'm not sure Banana Yoshimoto knew what she wanted to do with this story.
P.S.: the blurb is very misleading.
