Received A very Bad quality book, twice.

Great book

Written in informal language, a gentle story of love and acceptance.

Much more reflective and reflection invoking than the first book but definitely as engaging and evocative of a place, its time and the unmistakable real-feel of the characters who people its pages. The only thing that made me pause is that there were clearly some phrases in the writing that did not lend themselves to an easy translation. Possibly these are related to the cultural landscape of the original language, the place it was born and that it describes. That may not be entirely bad because it gives the reader more reason to contemplate, explore and hopefully more fully understand the content.

I read the first book, Days at the Morasaki Bookshop, with a great deal of pleasure. The sequel is just as good.The style of writing and translation is quite simple at first glance. However, as one delves deeper into the book, there is a thought provoking side to it. I found myself enjoying the prose for the sake of it at the start, but began to find myself pausing more to think about what I'd read.It gives the appearance that it is a basic story, but it constantly surprises. The main character is Takako, a young woman who appears to have a simple personality, but is actually rather complex. The bookshop, founded by her great grandfather, and currently owned and run by her uncle Satoru, is at the centre of all that is good in Takako's life.There is a lot in this book that I found resonated with my life. I could empathise with Takako in how she dealt with the many issues in her life. The last chapter had me crying because of the memories that it stirred in me.I'd certainly recommend this book, though if you have not read the first, then I would advise you to do so. It would be possible to read this book as a standalone, but your enjoyment would be increased by the background knowledge provided by the first, which is also a book that I recommended.

Wonderful book and probably a lovely sequel but huge printing mistake!! 30 pages missing from the book and some 30 pages printed twice! So irritating for the reader. Irresponsibility of Bonnier books of UK I guess.So do not buy.

Relatively quick delivery and it came well wrapped
