Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse
Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse | Otsuichi
3 posts | 4 read | 4 to read
A coming of age story, right after death. L to R (Western Style). Two short novels, including the title story and Black Fairy Tale, plus a bonus short story. Summer is a simple story of a nine-year-old girl who dies while on summer vacation. While her youthful killers try to hide the her body, she tells us the story from the POV of her dead body of the boys' attempt to get away murder. Black Fairy Tale is classic J-horror: a young girl loses an eye in an accident, but receives a transplant. Now she can see again, but what she sees out of her new left eye is the experiences and memories of its previous owner. Its previous deceased owner."

More HaikaSoru novels came into today! I'm so obsessed with HS, it's not even funny, y'all. Favourite pubs ever. Phantasm Japan is a collection of short SFF stories about Japan. Summer, Fireworks, & My Corpse is a collection of three stories that are from the paranormal fantasy & horror genres. Gene Mapper is a futuristic hard SF novel written by Taiyo Fujii (Orbital Cloud).

I absolutely loved my year's least popular book but wasn't thrilled with the most popular one. I added all the Otsuichi I could find in English to my TBR list.
