Description
From the bestselling author of the Japanese sensation The Full Moon Coffee Shop, this charming and heartfelt novel showcases the magic of Christmas as lost souls find themselves—with a little help of from an enchanted café run by cats.
Welcome back to the Full Moon Coffee Shop, serving up star-spun treats and magical insights for the holidays.
In Japan, cats are a symbol of good luck. As the myth goes, if you are kind to them, they’ll one day return the favor. And if you are kind to the right cat, you might just find yourself invited to a mysterious coffee shop under a Christmastime Kyoto moon.
Satomi is devoted to her job in Tokyo, but when her long-distance boyfriend hints that he is going to propose to her on Christmas Day, she feels pulled between the career that she loves and a quieter life in the country. What will the magical cats see for her future?
Satomi’s colleague Koyuki has been playing the role of the good, cheerful daughter ever since her father passed away in an accident on Christmas Day. But now that her mother has remarried, it’s hard to pretend she feels part of her new happy family. What will our feline friends reveal as her true wish this Christmas?
Junko, Satomi’s sister-in-law, lives in a small town with her husband and their young daughter, Ayu. When Junko’s estranged father becomes ill, she returns home with Ayu in tow, where she’ll learn something surprising at the enchanted coffee shop that will change her life forever.
This holiday season, each woman stands at a crossroad. With the help of some feline divinations, will they finally have the courage to seek what they most desperately wish for?
