Reminded me of: If your friend were to casually sit down & tell you a story. ๐

๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข: Takako has gone to live at her uncleโs used bookshop after her boyfriend casually announced, one day, that heโs been cheating on her. Oh, and heโs marrying the other woman.
This sent her into a downward spiral causing her to loose her job, and honestly herself.
Now, amongst the smell of musty used books, Tamako heals, discovering a passion for reading, and maybe, just maybe new parts of her. ๐

๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: I think this enchanting book is one every reader should read. It just has little gems ๐ scattered throughout that I feel will resonate with the soul of any reader.
Although the story isnโt too complex in nature, or long (only 147 pgs.), and some scenes give you more the feel of looking at a scrapbook rather than a video, it manages to convey great feeling through small moments. Thatโs something I loved most.
Itโs a very cozy little story. Also, itโs translated from Japanese. As someone whoโs studied Japanese, I could see the structure of the language come through. Which I personally adored.
Each of the characters is so cute and enjoyable! I truly loved journeying with them through this heartfelt little read!
