5.0

I absolutely adored this book. A five star that book that deserves it, not for being someone’s favorite book or very informative, but just a genuinely engaging piece of media that left me thinking and wanting more everytime I put it down.
God, Ozeki kept making new, lovable characters and I loved how everyone’s stories tied together and how it flowed. I wish Akiko got a bit more time because it was mainly Jane driven but I loved it all so so so much definitely one of my top books of the year.

am2ara's review against another edition

Got nauseated when

the CEO rapes his wife

while screaming at her. There is also a scene much earlier to a similar effect but the

rape

is unsuccessful.
