LovelyBooks-BewertungVon NMG am 22.07.2024

Die etwas andere sympathische Protagonistin. Regt zum nachdenken, schmunzeln und lachen an. Das Englisch ist leicht zu lesen und verstehen!

LovelyBooks-BewertungVon kitsunariii am 24.10.2023

Japan¿s marriage politics vs. feminist self-determination. Second half of the book was an uncomfortable read but with a good ending.
