A review by joymargot
The Bookshop Woman by Nanako Hanada

5.0

Japanese books about bookshops and libraries are amongst my favourite types of books to read!

This was such a quick and fun read and had quite a different vibe to the other Japanese novels I’ve read.

It genuinely had me laughing me out loud at points. I didn’t realise it was autobiographical until I’d finished reading it which made some of Nanako’s interactions even more bizarre!
