A few pages into this book and I already knew it was going to be a favourite. But this book literally changed something in me. Easily one of the best books I've ever read <3
I don't know how I'm supposed to review this???
This book is about books, coffee and a bookshop for sure but it's so much more than that. At its heart, this book is about our fast-paced lives and the self-reflection and human connections we need to survive and thrive. The Hyunam-Dong bookshop is a place where people come to borrow moments in time where they can take a breather, meet new people and find some peace.
Reading this book is like asking yourself a hundred questions but also so soothing and comforting at the same time. I've never annotated a book so hard and it's been so long since a book asked so much of me and moved me to reflect and contemplate on life. This is a 1000 times better than any self-help book out there. This book becomes your own personal safe place, just picking it up makes me feel lighter and the characters already feel like old friends I'd love to keep revisiting again and again.
If you pick up a book from my recommendations please please pick this one up <3
