The Convenience Store by the Sea by Sonoko Machida

4.0

If you're expecting something dramatic or even a story that'll keep you glued to your seat, you won't find it here. But that's not a bad thing. This is an atmospheric slice-of-life novel about people in a town in southern Japan. It's a calming, soothing read. Each chapter is dedicated to a different person and their lives are somehow intertwined.
