A review by literaryjunarin
What You Are Looking For is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama
4.0
“There are so many things to do, but I won’t make the excuse that I have no time anymore. Instead, I will think about what I can do with the time I have. One day is going to become tomorrow.”
This book is a hug for people who feel stuck, for those who are ashamed of their job, those who have no time to open their dream shop because of work, career-driven women who are held back by motherhood, ambitious adults but can't land a job, and for those who feel directionless after retirement.
I haven't read feel-good stories for a long time, and it felt nice to be reminded that we can look at difficult situations through a different lens. And that maybe, that one person we're annoyed at every day might be a big help to us one day.
I finished this book with a bigger heart.
