Natsuki Books is a small second-hand bookshop and Rintarou's favourite place, being an introvert and not handling interacting with others well. After his grandfather, owner of this small store, passes away, Rintarou has to deal with the grief of losing someone close to him, with the bookshops impending fate weighing extra on his shoulders. He hides behind the bookshelves and countless rare books that his grandfather loved, when a talking tabby cat appears in his shop, needing specifically his help in a magical quest to save books from certain doom. This is the most tender, heartwarming story I have read in a while. I love the characters, especially Tiger the cat of course, but also Rintarou and Sayo, his classmate, were a joy to read about. The premise of the labyrinths, the tests that Tiger puts Rintarou in, are simple enough to understand, but each of them help Rintarou overcome his grief about his grandfather. If you want a short. adorable book dealing with serious themes in a great way, you'll love this!

Lovely story

Loved the story. Japanese stories have such cool vibes that make the books so fun to read. The book had some valuabke lessons and it took me not much time to finish it. That is why I recommend it :)
