This was a fantastic collection of social horror stories. Each story focuses on a specific body part, and it does an amazing job of showing us how horrible things can get when we become obsessive on trying to achieve perfection.

Highly recommend checking this one out!

An odd little book.

As a horror novel, it falls flat - there's just nothing scary here. Likewise, as a thriller or mystery, there's not really much going on.

this was boring and trite. japanese gothic horror. makes you think it might get horrific many times but no, everything about this book can be garnered from looking at the cover. the protagonist is weak and easily hate-able, the plot is fine but i could see the ending coming from a mile away. not impressed.
