Kitchen yoshimoto Banana

kitchen

I really liked the book kitchen and was a good book to read as my first Japanese novel , as it was quite small and the plot was easy to understand I have to say though the way in which the Banana writes the book was difficult for me to get at first as the style is so different to anything i have read before but once I got the style I really enjoyed it . I imminently felt sympathy to the character and could easily relate to her I also easily understood the plot and where the
story was going which was good.

The book was about a young lady who’s just become orphaned and she goes to live with a friend she also has issues with her boyfriend and eventually overcomes them and moves on to be happier xx
