 ... entertaining, but a twist as you'd expect prolongs that the book extends beyond a couple of pages and temporarily makes you think that it's something that it's not. It is also in the cafe where we first meet Miyake's to-be love interest, waitress Miss Ai Imajo, and learn of how God enjoys living caged up in a mental asylum, courtesy of being allowed to peer into a black and white movie. In the second chapter Miyake's character is developed even more and we learn about his tragic sister Anju, who Miya...more
