The Little Friday Bookshop. Spring

AN ABSOLUTE BESTSELLER IN JAPAN.

A HILLING NOVEL WHERE EVERYONE WILL FIND THEIR «PERFECT» STORY.

A WARM AND COZY ATMOSPHERE OF A LITTLE BOOKSHOP, AND THE AROMA OF A CAFÉ—WITH DISHES INSPIRED BY BOOKS.

North of Tokyo lies a strange bookshop rumored to be where you can always find «the very one» book. Quiet, not entirely confident student Fumiya Kura i goes there—he wants to find a novel that is especially dear to his seriously ill father.

«Kinyōdō» is nothing like an ordinary shop. Inside, the air is filled with the scents of paper, coffee, and rain. Behind the counter is M inami Makino—a girl with a gentle smile and the attentive gaze of someone who remembers not only the titles on the shelves, but also other people’s feelings. And the rest are just as fitting for the place: the owner, who looks like a gangster but in his heart is a devoted book lover; and a mysterious dark-haired beauty with blue eyes—the barista from the café next door. Together, they do more than simply sell books: they pick out stories that support, soothe, and help you come closer to yourself.

Fumiya falls in love almost right away, but he has no idea that it’s here he will meet friends whose secrets will turn his life upside down. This place will bind him with threads that cannot be broken without consequences—and for the right to leave, he will have to pay far too dearly.
