Strange Weather in Tokyo is a heartwarming novel about love despite a generational gap, loss, and the cycle of love to loss.
I found the writing style to be simple yet sparkling with carefully chosen words. The characters are likeable so much that I wanted to be a part of their circle.
It's an easy read which has a slow build-up, but it's worth every second in the end. Beautifully heartbreaking.
