I actually really liked it, even though it was quite a bizarre read at times. Keiko is a very unique character, I adored her, I would definitely say she’s on the autistic spectrum somewhere, she doesn’t quite fit in to society’s norms, but she loves and excels at her job in the store where she works. I didn’t like any of the other characters in the book, they were way to judgemental of Keiko and I didn’t like the way she was treated by them, they kept trying to get her to conform to what fit in with their views and kept telling her what she should be doing with her life and some people were clearly taking advantage of her, it really got on my last nerve, I hated them for that. I did however love how Keiko stood up for me herself and I did love the ending of this Overall this was a really good read, I’m not sure I would say this was hilarious, but there was a slight touch of humour to it and I did like the weirdness of it, I’m a sucker for that, I would definitely read another book by this author. ## Features - Item Trademark: GROVE PRESS - manufacturer: Black Cat - Item Weight: pounds, pounds, 0.34, 0.34 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #101,206 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #210 in Literary Fiction #2,018 in Historical Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 3,060 Reviews | ## Images ![Grove Press Convenience Store Woman - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71K1cEWkDGL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Roman atypique *by O***E on 5 November 2018* Un roman atypique et qui se dévore très très vite ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Enjoyable *by A***C on 10 August 2023* This is a nice short read at 163 pages, I binge read it in one sitting.
