The One's good weather depicts a girl who shifted from a freelance to a formal employee and bravely took a new step. And its already the fifth year of the author into the company when the heroine in The Gentle Sigh had been created. Despite different plots, it fully resembled a follow-up coverage for the growth process of a girl.

“多么美好的人生啊。”
“可是，总不能永远这样下去吧。”
就像谈论别人的事情似的说完，风太大用纸巾擦掉了

Life seems repetitive, the ones don’t mind live happier than the rest. But when you look back at it, the pattern those repetitive days created is what our lives are.

大概是我不需要，但想要的生活。

和日文书的关系大概是到了倦怠期 感觉总在很平淡的故事里hit me with a bit of misogyny，对平淡，不好看

这是我第一次读青山的书，因为之前没有期待，所以看完以后也没有特别的感受。故事大体是关于一个女孩慢慢发现自己生活无聊乏味，所以想挣脱开这种固定的生活模式，但还是失败归于平淡。剧情没有特别吸引人的地方，措辞语气也和我之前读的日本小说基本相似。不过清的文字淡而韵致，青山的笔触就颇显苍白。我能理解园生活的乏善可陈，但对她选择挣脱的方式不敢苟同。在被绿君拒绝后，她就又回到不愿与人交际，不愿做出什么改变，默默窝在家里，空虚寂寥得日子里去，格局窄小，意义不大。小说整体不长，讲的也是一个简单的故事，只需喝一杯咖啡的时间而已。

“话又说回来，非暂时性的生活又存在于哪里呢？在风太来之前和走以后，我的生活就是自己真实的生活状态，这话我实在说不出来。也许，我只是想把那些生活片段看做为了达到某种目标的演习吧。”
我感到青山的文字就像这本书的名字 - 温暖的叹息。
