"The perfect mix of wry humor, fascinating characters, and heartfelt thoughts on what it means to understand the world through stories.”—Kristen Perrin, New York Times bestselling author of How to Solve Your Own Murder
A wickedly funny office comedy about one bookseller’s (occasionally) ludicrous attempts to understand her manager while against all odds clinging to herpassion for books—the perfect read for anyone who has felt that they can't even . . . with the idiots among us.
Kyoko Tanihara loves books. Just about. But life at the Musashino Bookshop is starting to get her down. Instead of promoting her favorite stories, she finds herself distracted, tearing her hair out at the mere sight of her infuriating manager Takeru Yamamoto who can’t seem to do anything but get inher way of success.
From Yamamoto’s useless obsession with self-helps books to his cringey remarks on the hottest author in town, everything about Yamamoto seems designed to set Kyoko off. All that amid her struggle to make a name for herself in the publishing world, it's tough for her to keep her love of literature pure and alive.
Until one day she is handed a book that speaks to all her frustrations, and opens her eyes to awhole new reality. What if there's actually more to her manager's obnoxious antics? What if, just maybe, her manager isn't so stupid after all?
