Sweet Bean Paste by Durian Sukegawa
5.0

This book perfectly fit the rainy season, it's cozy and WHOLESOME. Until the last few chapters this was a 4 star for me until last but one chapter, with all the pain I'm going through, that chapter helped me feel better. Gave a new perspective about life, that's what I look for in books.
The grandma character is so loveable. The story is slow, not so much plot, usually I'd not like these types of books but my taste has changed after The Invisible life of Addie Larue. Reading it at the end of the day soothed me
