The wise and charming international bestseller and hit Japanese movieabout a young woman who loses everything but finds herselfa cozy fiction tale of new beginnings, romantic and family relationships, and the comfort that can be found in books.
Twenty-five-year-old Takako has enjoyed a relatively easy existenceuntil the day her boyfriend Hideaki, the man she expected to wed, casually announces he's been cheating on her and is marrying the other woman. Suddenly, Takako's life is in freefall. She loses her job, her friends, and her acquaintances, and spirals into a deep depression. In the depths of her despair, she receives a call from her distant uncle Satoru.
An unusual man who has always pursued something of an unconventional life, especially after his wife Momoko left him out of the blue five years earlier, Satoru runs a second-hand bookshopa true haven for anyone who loves books about booksin Jimbocho, Tokyo's famous book district. Takako once looked down upon Satoru's life. Now, she reluctantly accepts his offer of the tiny room above the bookshop rent-free in exchange for helping out at the store. The move is temporary, until she can get back on her feet. But on her healing journey in the months that follow, Takako surprises herself when she develops a passion for Japanese literature, becomes a regular at a local coffee shop where she makes new friends, and eventually meets a young editor from a nearby publishing house who's going through his own messy breakup.
But just as she begins to find joy again, Hideaki reappears, forcing Takako to rely once again on her uncle, whose own life has begun to unravel. Together, this unlikely found family of seeming opposites work to understand each other and themselves as they continue to share the wisdom they've gained in the bookshop.

A love letter to reading
“Day by day, the leaves of the trees along the streets turned to gold. It delighted me to see how well the changing colors matched the slow transformation happening inside me.” After getting dumped by her boyfriend and shortly thereafter quitting her job Takako moves in with her uncle who runs a second hand bookshop. Feeling depressed she spends her days sleeping and sometimes helping out in the shop. Tatako never was an avid reader nor did she have any interest in literatur. Once boredom gets the better of her she decides to pick up a book and quickly is enthralled by reading. „Days at the Morisaki bookshop“ is a moving and quick read for bibliophiles who want to relive the moment they first fell in love with reading. -

“Who on earth played this cruel trick on me? The culprit, of course, was me.”
Have you ever dreamed about owning a cute little bookshop in a street full of other cute little bookshops? Well, Takako certainly hasn’t, but as she’s struggling with heartbreak and an overall life-crisis, she learns to find comfort in a way only a book can provide. -

Days at the Morisaki Bookshop
This book was love at first sight. At least from my side. The cover has a beautiful design and the colors match perfectly with the vibe of the book. Neither too bright nor too dark or pastel-colored. The story starts with a young woman named Takako and her cheating husband. He's getting married to their coworker. A few weeks after the breakup, Takako decides to quit her job and her mental state starts worsening. One day her uncle Satoru offers Takako to live rent-free at his bookshop. The Morisaki bookshop theaches them both a lesson about life and slowly everything starts feeling like life again. A beautiful story, quick to read, but still with a strong message behind those letters. I would definitely recommend this book to all the people who can't handle change and who feel alone.
