"Quizá yo no era un fracaso, si no que no había sabido escoger bien el lugar para dar lo mejor de mi. Por poco que fuera, allí me sentía útil."

La historia 4° le dio un respiro a mi mente y 🩷 🥹.

voy a llorar qué bonito y qué inspirador

me está gustando mucho

Such a comforting book

Very similar to “Before the Coffee Gets Cold” but just enough difference to stand on its own.

"You may say that it was the book, but it's how you read a book that is most valuable, rather than any power it might have itself." - Ms. Komachi

Interesting concept

La tercera historia 🥹

Part 2: story of a middle aged accountant of a furniture manufacturer who wanted to have his own antique shop. Unsatisfied at work and being unfulfilled. But the newsletter from the library and ‘How do worms work?’ Inspired him. He talked to the cat-bookstore owner. Found out about parallel careers. Both are equally important. And branch things out. Set yourself in motion, pulling on threads of connections.

Quote: Everybody is connected. And any one of their connections could be the start of a network that branches in many directions. If you wait for the right time to make connections, it might never happen, but if you show your face around, talk to people and see enough to give you the confidence that things could work out, then 'one day' might turn into 'tomorrow.

Part 1: story of a 21-year-old womenswear sales assistant finding her way of self-pampering and finding momentum in her life. Inspired by the book Guri and Gura finding a giant egg in the forest and make castella. She’s at this stage of confusion. Not knowing what she wants to do, what she can do. But there’s no need to panic. Just get her life in order and learn new things, choose from what’s available.

Love ! Keeps it interesting with all the different stories

Is being a sales assistant really not such a great job?

Well, I mean anybody can do it. It’s not like it’s my dream job or anything I desperately wanted to do.

You managed to find employment, you go to work every day and you can feed yourself. That’s a fine achievement.

Nobody’s ever summed up my life in this way before. Her answer makes me want to cry. It’s as if she sees me, just as I am.

This book is like a smile prescription. The best antidote to read Sally Rooney at the same time.

Such good lessons in the third story

This book has me convinced that Japan is a deeply misogynystic and fatphobic country

Nr 2 er den jeg liker best hittil

I loved the part on how trust is what makes the world go round. Made me do a lot of reflecting on how much trust has declined and the effect it’s had on us

Dit boek leest echt heel vlot. Het is heel ontspannend, je stapt even in andermans leven. Het inspireert mij ook om bewustere stappen te zetten in het dagelijkse leven, langzamere stappen :)

Good, so thank god she is not miserable anymore because I was getting miserable from reading about her misery.

The writing is very YA and simplistic. It works for me - I’m reading this before bed so it puts me to sleep right away.
Sometimes it feels like the author has no clue where to go with the story, so he just adds random elements.

Me encantó la primera historia, inspiradora 🥹🩷

this character’s way of thinking is highkey driving me crazy……
