  • Updated.  I found Kokoro to be an interesting and enjoyable read.  I heartily recommend it.

  • Updated. Quite enjoyed the Miyabe book. A fun, exciting read.

  • Updated.  Saitō's book was interesting, although I'm not sure I quite understood everything he was trying to say.  One interesting thing - apparently one of the inspirations for the "magical girl" genre in manga and anime was the TV show Bewitched.
