A review by lavender__
The Tale of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu

dark informative slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

An informative but not very enjoyable reading experience.
