A review by bookishmillennial
The Passengers on the Hankyu Line by Hiro Arikawa

emotional funny hopeful lighthearted reflective fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
This was so dang precious. To literally no one's surprise, my favorite story was about the grandma and her granddaughter, and their excitement in adopting a dog. I read this in one sitting, and I highly recommend it if you enjoy character-driven, slice-of-life stories about everyday people.
