Oooh this book was such a cozy comfort! I loved reading this book which was like a cozy character study. I enjoyed how each character had their own short story, that were all connected through this innocuous convenience store. I could feel how the author really understands people and how they think and function and how little choices can have huge consequences (both good and bad). Every time I opened this book, I was easily transported to Korea and honestly am so jealous of the delicious sounding snacks at this convenience store. The writing was beautiful and poignant.

Thanks to the publisher for the ARC; my thoughts and review are my own.
