It was so lovely to return to Tokyo and meet some new characters. The last story was particularly powerful.

I liked this better than the previous book in the series, but not quite as much as the first two. There really are a limited number of types of stories that you can tell in this format and I think the series might be hitting a wall. The story about the dog was my favourite.
