"There's more to Aoyama's novel than kindness. There is a subtle, provocative thread about misremembering; a pageant of interesting jobs; and a suite of mature, cooperative relationship. [T]he novel is an undeniable page-turner, its mechanism energized by a simple question, posed again and again by the uncanny librarian, Mrs. Komachi."--Robin Sloan, New York Times Book Review "A charming novel about the magic of reading." --The Washington Post "It's a tranquil and introspective book and one that'll stick with you for a long time."--BookRiot "A refreshing and hopeful look at the power of books and the durability of dreams." --Time "A delightful, gentle unfolding of stories that offer hope and joy to those who find themselves in a pivotal moment in life."--Kirkus "A comforting read filled with serendipity and simple wisdom, this is a celebration of community, connection, and the transformative power of libraries."--Booklist, "A delightful, gentle unfolding of stories that offer hope and joy to those who find themselves in a pivotal moment in life."--Kirkus, "A delightful, gentle unfolding of stories that offer hope and joy to those who find themselves in a pivotal moment in life."--Kirkus "A comforting read filled with serendipity and simple wisdom, this is a celebration of community, connection, and the transformative power of libraries."--Booklist "There's more to Aoyama's novel than kindness.
