    Good, but not great. I loved the premise, but the execution was lacking. The writing style was confusing at times. I will not read again.

    Found the themes repetitive at times. Some stories were captivating, but others dragged. A decent read.

    An okay book. The stories are a little too slow. There are some good moments, but overall its average.

    Enjoyed the exploration of human relationships. Some stories resonated deeply. A quick and thought-provoking read. Would recommend.

    A mixed bag. Some stories were profound, others fell flat. Akutagawa’s talent shines through occasionally. Worth a read, but not a masterpiece.

  14. Vanshika Saini

    I had high expectations, but I was slightly disappointed. Some stories lacked depth. Still worth checking out, though.
