This is my 106th read for the year
What Amazon says:
What are you looking for? So asks Tokyo's most enigmatic librarian. For Sayuri Komachi is able to sense exactly what each visitor to her library is searching for an provide just the book recommendation to help them find it. A restless retail assistant looks to gain new skills, a mother triest to overcome demotion at work after maternity leave, a conscientious accountant yearns to open an antique store, a recently retired salaryman searches for newfound purpose. This book is about the magic of libraries and the discovery of connection.
This was a good book. The story is interesting and I like how the characters made life changes based on just being asked a simple question "What are you looking for?". The story moves along nicely - with several characters becoming intertwined. I will say it unraveled a bit at the end - got a bit rambly - but overall a cut and sweet novel.
