Histoire
Little Marek, the abused and delusional son of the village shepherd, believes his mother died giving birth to him. One of Marek’s few consolations is his enduring bond with the blind village midwife, Ina, who suckled him when he was a baby. For some people, Ina’s ability to receive transmissions of sacred knowledge from the natural world is a godsend. For others, Ina’s home in the woods is a godless place.

Histoire
Ana and Reid needed a lucky break. The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery. They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings. Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort—a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny", and seem to move and speak as one. But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon"....

When Margaret and her husband Hal bought the large Victorian house on Hawthorn Street—for sale at a surprisingly reasonable price—they couldn’t believe they finally had a home of their own. Then they discovered the hauntings. Every September, the walls drip blood. The ghosts of former inhabitants appear, and all of them are terrified of something that lurks in the basement. Most people would flee. Margaret is not most people. Margaret is staying.

Histoire
Tsukiko, 38, works in an office and lives alone. One night, she happens to meet one of her former high school teachers, "Sensei", in a local bar. Tsukiko had only ever called him "Sensei" ("Teacher"). He is 30 years her senior, retired, and presumably a widower. Their relationship develops from a perfunctory acknowledgment of each other as they eat and drink alone at the bar, to a hesitant intimacy, which tilts awkwardly and poignantly into love.

Histoire
Celeste Price is an eighth-grade English teacher in suburban Tampa. But Celeste's devotion lies elsewhere. She has a singular sexual obsession: 14-year-old boys. In slaking her sexual thirst, Celeste Price is remorseless and deviously free of hesitation, a monstress driven by pure motivation. She deceives everyone, and cares nothing for anyone or anything but her own pleasure. With crackling, rampantly unadulterated prose, Tampa is a grand, uncompromising, seriocomic examination of want and a scorching literary debut.

Placed on sabbatical from her dead-end bar job, she is offered an exhibition at a fashionable London gallery, promising to revive her career in the art world and offering an escape from her rut of drugs, alcohol and extreme cinema.

Histoire
A strange plague called the "Gets" is decimating humanity on a global scale. It causes people to forget - small things at first, like where they left their keys... then the not-so-small things like how to drive, or the letters of the alphabet. Then their bodies forget how to function involuntarily - and there is no cure. But now, far below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, deep in the Marianas Trench, an heretofore unknown substance hailed as "ambrosia" has been discovered - a universal healer, from initial reports.

As a child, Natsuki doesn’t fit into her family. Her parents favor her sister, and her best friend is a plush toy hedgehog named Piyyut who has explained to her that he has come from the planet Popinpobopia on a special quest to help her save the Earth. Each summer, Natsuki counts down the days until her family drives into the mountains of Nagano to visit her grandparents in their wooden house in the forest, a place that couldn’t be more different from her grey commuter town. One summer, her cousin Yuu confides to Natsuki that he is an extraterrestrial and that every night he searches the sky for the spaceship that might take him back to his home planet. Natsuki wonders if she might be an alien too.
Back in her city home, Natsuki is scolded or ignored and even preyed upon by a young teacher at her cram school. As she grows up in a hostile, violent world, she consoles herself with memories of her time with Yuu and discovers a surprisingly potent inner power. Natsuki seems forced to fit into a society she deems a “baby factory,” but even as a married woman she wonders if there is more to this world than the mundane reality everyone else seems to accept. The answers are out there, and Natsuki has the power to find them.
Dreamlike, sometimes shocking, and always strange and wonderful, Earthlings asks what it means to be happy in a stifling world and cements Sayaka Murata’s status as a master chronicler of the outsider experience and our own uncanny universe.

Difficult to proceed
It’s not what I expected. Very traumatising. Before “Earthlings” I’ve read “The Convenience Store Woman” and I was still shocked. Be prepared for disgusting scenes. I don’t recommend it to empathetic people.

Beautifully terrible
One of my favourite books now. Heartbreaking and emotional, I feel like the author really captured how painful the act of survival can sometimes be.
Loved the narration as well, I felt like the voice was perfect for the story content! ♥️
I thank this book for ruining my psyche in the best way.

NOT what you expect
like literally first half ur like woah that took a turn! the last maybe hour or so its more like hey where did the FUCKING ROAD GO
also nancy wu killed it queen wherever you are you are an artist literally amazing fantastic wonderful i had fully fleshed out visuals of characters based on your acting alone. in addition to there being conversations with many people (some of whom were just introduced or are minor) and not once was i confused or wondering who was speaking. her acting was so good that when she would introduce a new character entirely id be like "thats a new person j havent heard that voice yet" like girl you need to be rich. k bye

Unexpected, sad, yet beautiful
A heartbreaking story of childhood trauma and stunted growth, Murata also casts a crititical eye on society's rigid expectations. Though it made me physically uncomfortable on more than one occasion, I did not find it gratuitously shocking. (though I do not mean that it is not shocking and I would abstain from reading if you are sensitive).
It is masterfully narrated. Nancy Wu breathes life into this electrifying and mind-boggling tale. She is one of the best narrators I have come accross.

Good start
The first half of the book was great and really explored trauma in an intressting way that made my chest feel tight at times. Second half was kinda stupid and felt like it was there just for shock value. The ending was pretty bad and felt useless.

Pseudointellectual take on the world. Shock value
This novel covers some serious subjects in a very disturbing but well structured way for the first half of the novel. the later half loses most of this charm by having the characters become so unusual and unrelatable that it is more of a shock value bait than anything. the idea of the world being a "baby factory" can be a legitimate concern for some people in what they believe society expects of them, but then the book has to make the people who challenge this status quo the most unrelatable and terrible people that you actually end up thinking to yourself "I'd rather stick with societal norms than subscribe to whatever these weirdos are doing to reject them."
