At least it’s short. Honestly this is a weird book to criticize as it is written from what must be author’s experience with the disability central to the plot. The biggest gripe with this short book is that I felt like the main character IS the disability. The actual characters are flat, bland, and completely forgettable. The fantasy and lurid thoughts are all centered around the things the main character is deprived off because of the disability, the things the able bodied individuals may take for granted or enjoy. Definitely a good reminder to meditate on being grateful for the things we have versus focusing on what we do not. While the lesson hidden in the pages is a noble one, the delivery is just ok, but that may be the fault of translating the work from Japanese, which can be challenging.
