Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop
by Hwang Bo-Reum
* 3.5 stars, rounded up *
This was a really cute, heartwarming novel about the importance of slowing down in the face of a hectic and exhausting work culture to reevaluate our priorities. The novel's slower pace mirrors this message, setting a lo-fi feel with nice vibes and allowing for a more character-driven plot to flourish. My only critique is that it sometimes felt slightly too optimistic or repetitive in its message. That said, it was a a super wholesome read that pays fitting tribute to the power of books in our lives.
