Definitely not my favorite book

The first 30 pages are quite entertaining as we follow the daily life of 古倉さん, but then the story becomes increasingly boring.

This book tackles the societal problems that women face (getting married, having children...) and it's quite interesting on that front except that it doesn't really become more developed but rather repetitive over and over and over again.

There's a lot of everyday vocabulary which is repeated so it's good for learning. For me, the main problem with the language was the long sentences which were sometimes difficult to understand.

Overall it's a good book for useful vocabulary and grammar, but the story really goes round in circles and it got so boring that I couldn't even finish the last 20 pages.
