It seems that every romance reader is looking for something different. Some are looking for trashy drama and cliched story lines involving a highlander or a duke or some sort of tamed rogue. Some are looking for stories about jilted women trying to find themselves whilst traipsing from one exotic location to another eating everything in sight. Some are looking to read about a woman who has been torn apart by tragedy in some form or another and finds her solace in accepting God's hand in her life and finding true love. Sometimes, a person is just looking to read a mellow little story about a heartbroken woman (but not earth shatteringly so) realistically trying to find her way through the dating world. No humongous drama, just a sweet and engaging story. I personally love all of the above, but the book at hand, The Only Thing I See, happens to be the last option. It isn't going to change your life, it isn't all that dramatic and it is predictable (what romance isn't) but it is a page turner none the less. Yes, the book coulda done with a smidge more oomph in my opinion, but it is one I'd recommend to readers who like a sweet mellow read. The writing in The Only Thing I See is solid, the pacing is great and the added element of possible paranormal was cool. It didn't seem to me if the question of whether the main character actually had visions, or if she was just projecting was ever fully answered, but that wasn't the point. I think you were supposed to make up your own mind. I enjoyed this book, but I can't say it rocked my world. It is definitely worth a read though!...

So much to say. You could spend probably two weeks purely on discussion of Mishima's landscape and setting descriptions, let alone the intricacies of his characters. The plot itself is fairly straightforward: a sailor and a widow who runs a business meet and fall for each other, and the majority of the book is taken up by the woman's son's reaction to the sailor's appearance in his life. The boys in Noboru's (the son's) gang abide by an understanding that the world is emptiness, and that they must actively install order through their own efforts (keeping in mind these are 13 year olds who later acknowledge that murder before the age of 14 is not punishable by law). To them, fathers are the vilest beings as their actions create limitations on what the boys view as an otherwise limitless existence. Noboru (the son) first views the sailor as a hero, an ideal symbol of manliness journeying out into that grand world of possibility without limitation; and as the sailor settles down for a definable, "limited" existence, the ideal disappears and Noboru strikes out. These boys are clearly disturbed; but despite all the focus on their warped perspective of society ("objectivity"), this pervading sense of disenchantment with self and society - an element I've found across the Mishima books I've read - has made the biggest impression on me so far and it makes me wonder if I'll ever find a (male) character in Mishima's books who is even remotely satisfied with the hand he's been dealt in life - but considering the life of author, I'm not holding my breath. Anyway, I am intrigued enough by this book to read through it again at a later date.
