Jane 미안 on Instagram: "Soyangri Book Kitchen by Kim Jee Hye (translated) Thank you SO much to the booksta friend who gifted me this from my wishlist 😭😭 -- I love this cover but I do wish it was more colorful like the international (?) version. I went into this, expecting the story to mostly follow Yoojin, similarly to Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop. But this is actually connecting short stories of different patrons. So, I felt very meh about Hyunam-dong. I definitely enjoyed Soyangri Book Kitchen a lot more, but I think the books have a lot of similarities too. I really loved Yoojin, even though we don't get as much of her as I would've liked. This book was overall, sweet and easygoing, even though some of the patrons are dealing with heavy hearts. A few parts had me a little bored, NGL lol. But I've been reading a lot of high stress books, so the drastic change up in pace wasn't easy to adjust to. I recommend when you want something to help slow you down, in thoughts and in life. Have you read this yet?"
