This was such an interesting reread. I liked the book the first time I read it, but it really bloomed upon reread for me. This time I definitely had a much more critical eye for Yozo’s feelings and thoughts about himself and the world around him, and I was surprised by how personal this felt to me. It’s such an interesting look into how depression and self-hate can color everything around you and lead to self-destructive behaviors.

Overall I enjoyed this book, it really explores society and how we function within it. It’s a book I want to eventually read physically and dissect properly.
