Burnout: physical or mental collapse caused by overwork or stress.

Jungmin spends a year hiding, hibernating, avoiding the outside world after an emotional event burns her out at work. Her awakening starts with a scream that comes from nowhere. It drives her outside, finally, and here she stumbles across Soyo pottery studio, confusing it for a coffee shop. She enters and what follows is a healing, messy recovery.

I loved reading this. Most of us have all been stressed enough to wish we could hide away for a time. We all need to find a place and community that allows us to heal.

This book is a warm hug, and is one of the books in the healing fiction category I would absolutely recommend.

I have been in a reading slump and this book is just cozy and easy. Although it confronts some difficult topics, it does so in an overall soothing but realistic way. It felt good to read!
