I've just finished Michiko Aoyama's "What You Are Looking for Is in the Library" and quite enjoyed its series of vignettes about various people's insights following their fateful visits to the local library. Definitely a cozy read. Though now that I've seen the title of the French translation (La bibliothèque des rêves secrets) I cannot help but wonder what the original Japanese title was.

@jendefer @bookstodon I also thought it was very sweet.

@kimlockhartga @jendefer @bookstodon And me! Have you tried Before the Coffee Gets Cold, by Toshikazu Kawaguchi, about a cafe where you can time travel for the length of time it takes for a coffee to grow cold?

@HollieK72 @kimlockhartga I have not read that one yet, though you're the second person who's mentioned it to me. The other person described it as a bit sad, or perhaps melancholy.
