Really original story and storytelling. I’m digging the precise, colorful, and (scusa) delicious descriptions of food and the pleasure of eating, rudely interrupted by reminders of the expectations of women’s bodies. I love Japanese feminist literature.

The pivot to first person was unexpected and at first unwelcome, but I think Yuzuki pulled it off. Really enjoying this read

The dynamic between Riko and Kajii vaguely reminds me of that between Clarice starling and Hannibal lecter…friends, ish.
I love these rich descriptions of food, it makes me wonder at the work of the translator for some of these words.
Devouring this book and hungry for more
