Breasts and Eggs by Mieko Kawakami

5.0

i preferred book 2 to book 1, but i still loved them both. i liked how, when natsuko goes back home to visit her old town, i feel the same nostalgia and melancholy she does. it made me long for a place i've never been, and a life i've never lived. it also made me love being a woman, made me love what women are capable of, and made me love the relationships i have in my life. 10/10 recommend if you want to cry! :)
