The Heartbeat Library by Laura Imai Messina
2.25
inspiring lighthearted relaxing slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

You get to know what I call the main characters Shūichi, Kenta, Sayaka. The love story between shūichi and sayaka is obvious but I feel like it's not explored. It's hinted that they're a couple but not actually stated until about 60% way through the book and then that's it.

It's a nice concept of the characters finding and exploring the library of heartbeats. But didn't think it reads particularly well.
