What You Are Looking for is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama

Several distantly connected members of a community find themselves pulled into the library for different reasons. What they find there surprises them — and it might surprise you, too!

This gentle, cozy book is all about community, connection, and seeking out what we need to fill our lives with joy and kindness.

Is the library magic? Or is this just what happens when people truly come together?
