almost there…

i’ve got less than 27 hours to finish this book… i got this (maybe?)

“the old woman’s prayer” was pretty good! i’m not sure i felt completely satisfied by the ending, though.

whoa, i really enjoyed this book!! such a bittersweet ending. i can't fully articulate my thoughts right now, so i'll have to wait a bit before i write a review. hopefully, going to book club will clarify some things for me!!

*pants* almost at the finish line… almost…

as much as i'd love to keep reading, my eyes are getting so tired... (it's nearly midnight). i'm really enjoying this book thus far, though. i have no clue what's going to happen next (complimentary).

i'm certainly intrigued by the introduction!

okay, okay, so i'm officially veryyy invested in this story!

painter: i, too, would likely be unhealthily obsessed with tomie... ★★★

the long dream: not being able to sleep peacefully sounds horrendous... i wouldn't be able to cope with it!! ★★★★

marionette mansion: nooooo, not kinuko!! (i did love the ballerinas, though...) ★★★★

hanging blimp: when the kazuko's dad was like, "look, i know the world is ending, but i gotta go to work," and then immediately died, i was cracking up so bad ★★★★½

used record: wasn’t all that creepy (in my opinion), but i liked the premise! ★★★

shiver: ewwwww! i felt so icky while reading… yuck. it definitely spooked me a bit… ★★★½

fashion model: was i supposed to be laughing? gosh, this story was so absurd. definitely my favorite so far! ★★★★
