really liked it

If you saw this on my tbr for Japanuary, no you didn't. I don't know why I make tbrs. I rarely follow them. I'd say hold me accountable, but my Taurus ass hates that.

I wasn't quite sure what I was expecting from this one, but I think I loved it. Translated Japanese literature is always hit or miss for me, and while the general complaint is that it feels cold, I get it. Or, I get this.

Shaka, and the author, are disabled. You know I love an own voices story. But don't feel bad for Shaka. She has a lot of things going on in that head of hers. The first 9% was wild. The 78% mark was wild. It's sexual. It's weird. I don't want to spoil it. Maybe go in blind. Sometimes that's best.

Glen Sooo someone should make you do pushups or something when you don't read a book on your TBR list? How does one get held accountable for reading books NOT on their TBR list?

I could probably use the exercise, but no thanks.

A Mac Well you make this one sound absolutely intriguing. Love to see an Own Voices story that turned out so well - great review!
