A Japanese bestseller about the power and magic of books.
“Were you looking for something?” is the question posed by the mysterious librarian Sayuri Komati to everyone who comes to borrow books. Along with a list of recommended readings, each of her five visitors gets a chance to change their life for the better: start being proud of your achievements and take care of yourself, stop searching for approval from others, learn to value your loved ones, and trust the world. The stories of the main characters will show that answers to all questions can be found in a library—and that no matter how hopeless a situation may seem, it’s still possible to handle it.
