Marigold Mind Laundry by Jungeun Yun
3.0

This novel is almost two books in one. First book, a quirky sweet story set in Korea. Imagine a laundry where the stains of regret, unhappiness, even sadness get washed away and replaced with self- confidence, contentment and joy. Second book, an advice book on how to move beyond your past, those memories and feelings that hold you back and instead focus on the positive things in your life. Instead of providing step by step instructions, advice is dispensed via a lovely story where the individuals in the story receive the advice and are able to overcome their obstacles.

I enjoyed this story, although a few terms were foreign to me such as Aigoo (Korean for OMG) but overall, I liked how the author dispensed advice without sounding preachy and in a story format. If you enjoy stories with a bit of magic, where the characters strive for new beginnings and where advice is given in a gentle caring way, this book is for you.
