I really liked how this book led me on a journey through the main character Satou's despair, and his absolute wreck of a life inspired me to change my own. It's like... more subversive than Chuck Palahniuk, but less offensive than Mein Kampf, if you get what I mean. This book is pretty heavy stuff to deal with if you're ALREADY depressed, but it may help you realise there are good and VERY BAD ways to deal with one's melancholy and bleak circumstances.I have a more philosophical treatment of the ending here:http://aspergers.dasaku.net/?p=1249This book is #2 on my list of "Books not to let your parents know you own", the #1 spot being taken up by the works of Anais Nin.Five stars well deserved, but I would prefer to evaluate the merit of a book without an established merit system. Emotions can't be put on a scale.

Lain Iwakura, an awkward and introverted fourteen-year-old, is one of the many girls from her school to receive a disturbing email from her classmate Chisa Yomoda-the very same Chisa who recently committed suicide. Lain has neither the desire nor the experience to handle even basic technology; yet, when the technophobe opens the email, it leads her straight into the Wired, a virtual world of communication networks similar to what we know as the internet. Lain's life is turned upside down as she begins to encounter cryptic mysteries one after another. Strange men called the Men in Black begin to appear wherever she goes, asking her questions and somehow knowing more about her than even she herself knows. With the boundaries between reality and cyberspace rapidly blurring, Lain is plunged into more surreal and bizarre events where identity, consciousness, and perception are concepts that take on new meanings.

A third year university student in Kyoto, Japan feels like he's wasted his first two years of University on his current student club, having not yet found a girlfriend and having made only two friends: Ozu, who he deems to not have a single redeeming quality as a human being and Ms. Akashi, a stoic first-year engineering student. One night, the protagonist encounters a deity of matrimony during dinner. He tells him that Ms. Akashi will end up paired with either him or Ozu and it's up to him to take the opportunity that is dangling in front of him or not.
