I read this book in January and it was a great one to start the year with.

This story is about slowing down, appreciating the small things and not getting lost in the hustle of life and work.

We have different characters, each one in their own quest of finding new meaning in their lives, for some of them after trying and failing to have a certain lifestyle. I found myself relating to almost all the characters, especially Yeongju, who rekindled her love and passion for books and reading.

This was a comforting, cozy read. I felt transported to Yeongju’s bookshop and the atmosphere it created.
