Status Updates From What You Are Looking For Is...

After a hard week full of uncertainty, I needed that first story. 😭😍

There are some stories that'll find you at the right moment. The 1st story in this anthology was that for me. It really feels like it was written for me for this exact moment of my life.

I really enjoyed the first story. I wasn’t sure where it was going but the connection at the end was amazing. Made me feel like I could make a few small changes in my life that would make me so much happier.

I fear this will be the final straw that gets me into crochet

"she reminded me of the Disney Baymax character" is fucking WILD

El capítulo 3 se dibujó directo en el corazón

3.5⭐️

This was such a wholesome, heart-warming little read with five very sweet little stories about books and life. I enjoyed it to a point, but get a bit bored and found myself counting how many pages were left (which is never good) but I guess that is the point of the genre so I can’t really complain.

Bonito e inspirador, y se lee muy rápido, pero peca un poco de libro de autoayuda

i do enjoy reading on the character development from this 2nd chapter hehe very eye-opening too!

P62 fatshaming
Kitty
Everyone is middle aged omg
Real kitty…? The librarian is some kinda psychic
Hopecore

P11 she literally stereotypes a man and insinuates one cannot be smart AND intellectual.
Fat shaming p18
The italicised noises like woo-hoo! Make the book somehow childish and millennial.
She doesn’t want to be friends with Saya and is only friends because Saya compliments her…
Descriptions are minimal for things eg food p30
‘Lo-o-ong time’….

The book establishes stereotypes as ‘limiting’ in the very first page.
Establishes MC as insecure + bored of life.
She says the older woman working with her is ‘bossy’ but ‘right’ (so she SHOULD deal with it…?)
She finishes work and chooses to stay and help a customer instead of directing them to a colleague. Then complains about it.
Writing style is unbearably repetitive.

This is short and wonderful and I don't want to put it down.
I don't know where I heard of it, but I was looking for something from my list that the library had an ebook copy available of, and I'm so glad they did.

Tomoka works at a boutique in a department store. She is thinking of moving job but needs office skills. She looks at a nearby school to get lessons on excel.

Whimsical, still getting started.

Ho voglia di fare il pandispagna anche io

Richtig cozy, gefällt mir bisher gut, perfekt auch gerade für die Zeit :)

It’s crazy how easy a book is to read when you actually enjoy it.
