This is one of those disgruntled with life books that seems to be on trend in Japan. It's well written short stories and I was definitely drawn into all of them. I definitely appreciate this cover.

Ethan & Gabe are married with a young daughter. Gabe is a Democrat and Ethan suddenly announces he‘s going to run for Congress as a Republican. Ethan‘s sister Kate is a political reporter who can‘t report on the campaign due to her brother running, and whose messy fling Nicole from 20 years ago (now married to a man) reappears.

I was really engrossed by this, and it became very tense as the vote grew ⬇️

Ella, living in her stepmother‘s cellar, & Belle, searching for a way to save her father find themselves magically swapped into each other‘s stories.

This was really adorable! The bones of each fairy tale were there, but they way they got reinterpreted was so interesting! & the final twist was really well done! None of these characters acted as young as they were supposed to be, but otherwise this was a lovely middle grade retelling! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Cosy fantasy romance between a ghost whisperer and a ghost hunter.

I really liked the idea of a sentient inn that helps spirits to move on to the afterlife and its new innkeeper, who can see ghosts, and needs to learn the ropes. The atmosphere of the inn was incredible, I wish I could have joined the spirits for one of their tea parties.

Nadya, born in Russia, adopted to Colorado, falls into a pond & discovers a city beneath The Lake of giant turtles, river songs, talking foxes, & love.

I haven‘t fallen in love w/ a character this quickly in this series since Lundy. I loved Nadya‘s curiosity, her determination, her comfort in her own body even w/ the lack of an arm. & the world! I wanted to sink down into this Drowned World. Immediately want to reread the whole series! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
