Lovesickness: Junji Ito Story Collection by Junji Ito

5.0

4,5/5. Junji Ito!! Am I the only one who always yell this name in my head with a weird Japanese accent? Probably... Anyway, he is the master of horror manga and you should read him if you love horror, even if not a huge manga fan, or not at all, this author is worth the detour! The 2/3 of the book provides stories in the same "line" kind of a continuity starting kind of normally and becoming really weird in some sort of crescendo like Ito often does. The last ones are just short stories on their own, and honestly some are very average two are good enough, but the first part is definitely the best. Junito Ito (again just yelling in my head!) is now a sure read for me for anything new he will publish and I still have some back reading to do of his "less" noticeable work. I should get back to it then!
