This is very easy to read, unlike a lot of translated classics. I highly recommend it. It is interesting as to what is classified as a romance, as the first story of the the seven wouldn't be deemed to the modern standards of romantic. However, after getting to know the definition of romance in this context, this is very different to the way we look at romance - in terms of love and gestures, the book becomes increasingly interesting.

As good as, if not better than the first, I'm still in absolute awe of each character and how they act and speak and I just love them! You have to be a pretty special author to create characters that are memorable and so unique in contrast to other characters in other books but of course Laurel is just that amazing! Carlyle is by far my favourite female character in anything I've ever read. You fabulous Qilin you!!!!

The first book club read of the year, did I enjoy it yes and no, it started very well but dragged on too long, chapter 30 was where I would gave ended it.
It did give you a look at the 10 year old mind and how they see the world, which I found interesting and what a psychiatrist would make of the end I would love to know.
All together an interesting if not drawn out read.

"Though I love ALL of Eileen Myles’ books, Not Me was the first that I got my hands on as a young person and it’s the one that I’ve read over and over again through the years. Myles’s poetry is a river of words and beauty that a reader can float downstream, easy and profound and lyrical to read under your breath, making all of the ordinary moments we experience in life more complex and packed with meaning."
