Idk this was fine I guess… I liked the last story. I didn’t really have any feelings towards any characters, in fact I found most of them a bit annoying. I’m so disappointed I was so ready for this to become a new fav 😭

This is an entire book about people realizing that jobs aren’t identities and that life is to be found outside of jobs - I am so here for it! I really enjoyed each of the journeys of our library patrons and was especially drawn to the delightful, felting librarian. This is beautifully paced, well written and translated with a very important message.

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.
