A collection of short stories that are loosely connected, with the Kohana Bento shop as the center of the narrative. The stories are varied and easy to read, without going deeply into the details of each episode. It’s more of a light, comfort read with a subtle feel-good tone. Personally, I didn’t find the plot particularly engaging—it’s the kind of book you can read casually, but not one that really pulls you in. Still, it’s not bad; it just may not be my taste.
