I LOVED " Days At The Morisaki Bookshop"! It just blew me away. Now one of my ALL time favorites now. It evoked so many feelings, emotions and thoughts in me. I could not put it down! I thought about it for days after I read it last week. I did order " More Days...." a few days after finishing. Rated 3.? shows you how wrong Good Reads can be. I rated it 5 in my journal.
I never *truly* trust Goodreads 🤣 mob mentality, fake profiles, vendettas et al. I do however think that the Morisaki Bookshop is meant for a special kind of person who enjoys the slow and steady of an everyday life. I don't need a triple crossed plot twist and shock around every corner to be entertained. Morisaki almost feels like it was written in a different time, though that may also be a result of the translation. Have you ever tried A Tree Grows In Brooklyn? It has a similar slow and thoughtful feel and quickly became my favourite classic novel.
