Welcome To The Hyunam-dong Bookshop – Hwang Bo-reum

This interesting story is set in Korea. Yeongju quits her high-flying career to open an independent bookshop in a quaint neighbourhood in Seoul. This is an introspective and philosophical book. What is the purpose of reading? Should you pursue something you like, or something that you are good at? The characters who frequent the bookshop are all taking (small) steps forward, encouraged by a space that is a refuge, to have meaningful conversations with good people. In short, a heartwarming story about finding acceptance in your life. Thanks Amy, for this recommendation.
