Teenage girl Yae and her mom are joined by two female lodgers for a hilarious journey of nothing in particular. This is a cute Seinfeld-esque comedy about the girls' everyday life. Stories are random, but Hai-Ran does a great job with building characters and relationships. The title Tori Koro comes from the tricolors of the national French banner (blue, white and red) that coincide with the character' mood.

Why do some men become convinced—despite what doctors tell them—that their penises have, simply, disappeared. Why do people across the world become convinced that they are cursed to die on a particular date—and then do? Why do people in Malaysia suddenly “run amok”? In The Geography of Madness, acclaimed magazine writer Frank Bures investigates these and other “culture-bound” syndromes, tracing each seemingly baffling phenomenon to its source. It’s a fascinating, and at times rollicking, adventure that takes the reader around the world and deep into the oddities of the human psyche. What Bures uncovers along the way is a poignant and stirring story of the persistence of belief, fear, and hope.
