Favorite book or author?
No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai
The first book you've read;
Hmmm, I'd say it was probably the Harry Potter Series? And right after that would've been Animal Farm which was what actually got me into reading funny enough..
Books you haven't read;
Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata, Circe by Madaline Miller, and Battle Royale by Koushun Takami all seem like good reads!
List some others you have read and talk about them
Lovely Bones - 5 ⭐ (Absolutely heart wrenching)
The Inugami Curse - 5 ⭐ (A very charming and stylistic story, a must read for anybody into murder mysteries)
Escape from Spiderhead - 4 ⭐ (Tightly written but still somehow vivid and descriptive)
The Psychology of Time Travel - 4.5 ⭐ (Interesting take on the 'scientists gone mad' trope)
The Idiot - 3.5 ⭐ (tbh I had trouble getting into it, might re-read it with a different translation)
The Picture of Dorian Gray - 5 ⭐ (One of my favorite english lit books)
The Virgin Suicides - 4 ⭐ (A good book but couldn't look past some of the romanticizing it does)
The Song of Achilles - 5 ⭐ (*chefs kiss*)
Norwegian Wood - 3 ⭐ (A little too slow paced)
Emma - 4 ⭐ (mmm a very fun book)
I haven't read the alchemist myself, and judging from this tread it seems to have mixed feelings about it. Would you all still recommend it?
