木になった亜沙

木になった亜沙: the usual quirky and pleasantly weird kind of story we’ve come to expect from this author. This one is more upbeat than usual, following a young misfit girl that finds her calling in a very unexpected/absurd way. ⭐️⭐️✨

的になった七未: possibly the heaviest in its themes and events (quite a few TW), and also the longest. I feel that the overall silliness of it all makes it hard to really care and root for the main character. Possibly because of that, I didn’t enjoy it that much. ⭐️⭐️

ある夜の思い出: this one is very dreamlike, with a succession of absurd events, it’s short and weird and will likely get a smile out of you. ⭐️⭐️🌟

In terms of language learning there is nothing special to say. I’d maybe bump up the difficulty rating a little bit to L27 but it’s fairly easy modern standard Japanese with no dialect, few difficult words, grammar or Kanji. This is a fairly safe choice for one of your first few books.

Three story stories, all felt like modern day fairytales.

A great read, and also, I think, quite learner friendly language.
