While a fun read, it's not my favorite Junji Ito book by a long shot. The first few stories were pretty captivating, but by the end I was tired of seeing Tomie being dismembered by her obsessed lovers. Her mutations were pretty interesting, but after having read so many of his other stories I guess I was expecting a little more gore and horror. As others have said, it just got a little repetitive by the end.
