<SPOILER> As I start my journey to read 100 books in a year, this one was a pleasure to start on! Following the daily journey of Guylain, a man working in a book shredding factory that absolutely loathes his job and escapes his daily troubles with short stories from pages he’s managed to rescue from the jaws of “the thing” His daily commute is made that little bit more tolerable as he reads aloud these pages to the other passengers on the train, but his life changes dramatically when he finds the diary of a public toilet attendant in the form of a USB stick…. How will he find her?
