Ms Ice Sandwich is a novelette (92 pages) by Japanese author Mieko Kawakami narrated by a young protagonist (elementary school) with an unknown name. He tells us all about his secret crush; the lady who sells sandwiches in the supermarket near his house. He also tells us about his daily life, his mother and school. I gave the story 3 stars because I felt that I didn't connect as much with the characters due to the shortness of the story, however, the premise is very original, and it made me feel warm to read the protagonist's feelings.

Ms Ice Sandwich es una novelita o novela corta (92 páginas) por la autora japonesa Mieko Kawakami. Narrada por un joven protagonista (escuela primaria) cuyo nombre no llegamos a saber, nos cuenta acerca de su crush secreto que es nada más y nada menos que la señorita que vende sándwiches en el supermercado cercano a su casa. También nos cuenta de su vida cotidiana, de su mama y de la escuela. Le di al relato 3 estrellas ya que sentí que no llegue a conectar tantos con los personajes por lo corta de la historia, sin embargo, la premisa es muy original, y me causo ternura leer los sentimientos del protagonista.
