About This Novel
"Waiting in the Dark" is a masterpiece of a novel by the 16-year-old talented writer Otoichi who is a sensation in the Japanese literary world. It delicately depicts the warm and beautiful emotions of a lonely person in the world, like a beam of light that can illuminate every lonely heart. Story synopsis of "Waiting in the Dark": 24-year-old Mitsuru Honma has been blind for three years. Sometimes, her friends would accompany her out to buy some daily necessities, which was her only contact with the outside world. There will be countless things outside that can make people hurt, she thought, and the boundless darkness made her feel at ease. Every day, she lay on the tatami in the living room, huddled in a ball in the dark, waiting to die. She thought that if robbers came, she would bite her tongue and commit suicide. In the past few days, she always felt a strange feeling around her: there was exactly enough bread in the refrigerator to last for a week, but it was all eaten in five days; the casserole that fell from the cupboard appeared on the dining table without being smashed. She made stew and tried to put an extra set of dishes on the table.

However, after reading the reviews from book friends, I know that I am biased.
I feel a little depressed when I read books written by Japanese people.

I liked this cover as soon as I saw it
This is a heart-warming story that can be read in one sitting.
Why are so few people reading this very good book? Have you all read romance novels?
