I finished it a while ago and I just generally enjoyed the feeling it gave me and the themes of self-acceptance, finding peace, and discovering your own self-worth amongst good companionship and through your own solitude.
I don’t mind if any recs aren’t even the same genre, I’d just really appreciate reading a book with those above themes and the same idle, relaxed yet emotional atmosphere of The Morisaki Bookshop. I’d love to get into more contemporary Japanese literature but if anyone knows of any good classics with the same feeling, Japanese or not, I’d love to check them out! I want to improve the fluency of my reading and my own vocabulary as well as enjoy a good read.
