The Friday Bookshop
One bookshop. Four books. Four stories.
University student Fumiya Kurai is at a crossroads. A long time ago, he borrowed a book from his father, who now wants it back. There's just one problem—Fumiya has lost it, and his father won't accept a newer edition. His only option is to investigate an urban legend he found online and visit the Friday Bookshop. It is said that everyone can find the book they most desire there. The shop is run by a peculiar trio—the energetic and impulsive manager, Makino; the sharp but kind owner, Waku; and the quiet chef, Sugawa.
Fumiya has no idea that this mysterious establishment is about to turn his life upside down—from his unhealthy attitude towards books to his family relationships and his view of himself. The Friday Bookshop, it turns out, has much more to offer than just stories on paper.
About the book:
An ode to slow, healing reading that melts in your mouth like a sweet mochi cake.
