Tokyo Dreaming is a refreshing coming of age story of a young woman learning to find what she wants in her life without having to make everyone in her life happy first. The narrator is authentic and believable and the ending brought the joy to my heart and a smile to my lips. Who doesn’t enjoy a happy ending where everyone gets what they want.
Thank you NetGalley for the advanced copy.
