The book is five short stories, though they are loosely connected. I enjoyed each one and found them to be inspirational as each character was at a crossroad, trying to figure out what was next for them.

Praticamente só gostei mais do final e de uma história ou outra. A maioria dos personagens, e todos homens, apresentavam comportamentos suspeitos em relação a algumas falas um tanto assediadoras, pelo menos como leitora. Além disso(que atrapalhou bastante na leitura) o livro apresenta histórias muito emocionantes e inspiradoras.

This was just what I needed to read at this time. It was light and fluffy and solidifies my opinion that the right book at the right time can literally change your life, it's just a matter of finding it. One should never be without a book. It also quenched my thirst for Japanese literature/stories.
