I made it through 1 1/2 of the 4 “stories” and that was enough for me. I just couldn’t bring myself to care about these characters and their choices. ( ) A college student tries to steal and eventually falls in love with a sex doll. This happens four times. Not the main storyline but one of the only memorable moments in the book, for the wrong reasons. While I’m sure the anime series is great, the book was very repetitive, and while I’m sure that’s what the author was going for, it does not work. While the point of the book is to show the same story happening across multiple parallel universes, these universes are not different from each other, with the second and third tale being borderline identical. The writing is great but the book quickly begins to get lost in its own loop that it created for itself. the summary is a little misleading but overall, a solid novel that explores the idea of the butterfly effect (er, moth effect?), whether or not fate can be changed, and concludes with a touch of self enlightenment. the concepts in this story is definitely something to admire, even if you might not agree with it. the way the novel is laid out is also very lovely and i enjoyed every moment of the book aucune critique | ajouter une critique

An unfulfilled college student hurtles through four parallel realities to explore the what might've been and the what should never be in this Groundhog's Day meets The Midnight Library-esque novel from one of Japan's most popular authors. Our protagonist, an unnamed junior at the prestigious Kyoto University, is on the verge of dropping out. After rebelling against the dictatorial jock president of the film club, he and his worst and only friend, the diabolical creep Ozu, are personas non grata on campus. For three years, our protagonist has made all the wrong decisions, and now he's about to make another mistake. He and Ozu are preparing for revenge - a fireworks attack at the film club's welcoming party for new members. Then, a chance encounter with a self-proclaimed god sets the confused and distraught young man on a new course. Destiny will bring him together with Akashi, the blunt but charming sophomore he has a crush on - if he's brave enough to make a move. Yet our protagonist cannot get beyond his profound disillusionment and the moment is lost. But what if there's a universe where he did join the club of his dreams, ditched Ozu for good, and was confident enough to get the girl? A realm of possibility opens up for our protagonist as time rewinds, and from the four-and-a-half-foot tatami floor of his dorm room, he is plunged into a series of adventures that will take him to four parallel universes. In each universe, he is given the opportunity to start over as a freshman, in search of a rose-colored ampus life. The inspiration behind the much-loved anime series, Tomihiko Morimi's contemporary classic is a fantastic journey through time and space, where a half-eaten castella cake, a photograph from Rome, and a giant cavity in a wisdom tooth hold the keys to self-discovery. A time-traveling romp that speaks to everyone who has wondered what if, The Tatami Galaxy will win readers' hearts over... and over... and over again.
