This was an incredible challenge for me and I'm not entirely sure how I got through it, but I did. There's a LOT of business Japanese and a LOT of Osaka-ben and the two combined make it a very tiring read. Thankfully it's just high enough on the 'what the hell is going on' scale that still makes it a page turner. I'm not sure I loved how it concluded but I'm also not completely certain I understood it, so taking that into account I think it was a pretty good read, at least from a language learning perspective.
