Hi Friends. In this episode of TBR Lowdown:

We discuss our April book club pick, Battle Royale by Koushun Takami, translated from the Japanese by Yuji Oniki. 

Battle Royale has been deemed a cult classic, so we had to see what all the fuss was about. Will it meet our expectations or will it fall flat for our reading tastes? 

Highlights:

🎙 We question what actually makes a book a cult classic.

🎙 Can there be too many characters in a book?

🎙 Reading multiple books in translation from the same translator.

Check out our show notes to see the small presses we love and the books we want to read from them. LINK IN BIO
