Full Moon Coffee Shop

A mysterious coffee shop with no fixed location or hours appears—always under a full moon—to people who have drifted off course in life. It's run by wise, talking cats who serve exquisite coffee and cake and, more importantly, read their guests' astrological birth charts, offering gentle, cryptic guidance about where their paths went astray and how they might find their way back. Following a down-on-her-luck screenwriter and others whose lives quietly intertwine, this is a cozy, magical Japanese novel about second chances, fate, and the small kindnesses that can change a life. Translated from the Japanese.
