A solid 4.5 stars. Might come back to review this later, but really enjoyed both the plot and the quality of the translation.

I loved this book. I especially liked its format and will look for some more books written by Mary Shelley. It still baffles me how she was able to write this when she was only nineteen.

An accurate portrait of the mood of a crew in the last day before closing down a restaurant. This took me back a couple years, which is a sign of great writing.

Note to self: Hire a Japanese writer to describe my dishes if I ever open a restaurant.

How beautiful. First thing I read by Wilde other than some loose quotes but definitely will look for some other things written by him,
