pootriarch reviewed Magical Girl Retires by Anton Hur
Deceptively thought-provoking
4 stars
The language is that of a young woman writing in her journal. The chapters are short, as is the book. Yet it manages to remind the reader of climate change, of class unfairness, of where the revenge motive leads. It starts with a girl on a bridge who sees nothing before her, and ends with that girl earning her future.
