Season 1, Ep 42: We Discuss Battle Royale, Our April Book Club Pick
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.
Books we recommended at the end of the show.
