69 - Reading

The movie of this book was talked about constantly amongst my Japanese friends. Everyone knew it except for me. Even to this day I haven't seen the movie, but when I found the book in the big bookshop at Kurume Youme Town, I had to buy it.

They kept saying "Alfa Romeo" with a particular kind of accent, and it was hilarious, especially when I would repeat it amongst all these Japanese and they would piss themselves laughing and say "69"!! I had no idea what they were talking about.

The book itself is okay, it's a bit slow for my liking. I can see how it's funny, but I don't know what the movie is like. I have a feeling the movie will be really funny.
