FEATURES A UNIQUE ORIGAMI JACKET that folds into a boat, joining the characters in an enchanting way. The jacket artwork is also printed directly onto the hardcover case underneath.
âRace through a lush world of pure wonder and romanceâkites made of wishes that become stars, origami that holds time in its folds, and a night market in the cloudsâin this lovely, cozy fantasy reminiscent of Erin Morgenstern's The Starless Sea.ââBooklist (starred review)
On a backstreet in Tokyo lies a pawnshop, but not everyone can find it. Most will see a cozy ramen restaurant. And only the chosen onesâthose who are lostâwill find a place to pawn their life choices and deepest regrets.
Hana Ishikawa wakes on her first morning as the pawnshopâs new owner to find it ransacked, the shopâs most precious acquisition stolen, and her father missing. And then into the shop stumbles a charming stranger, quite unlike its other customers, for he offers help instead of seeking it.
Together, they must journey through a mystical world to find Hanaâs father and the stolen choiceâby way of rain puddles, rides on paper cranes, the bridge between midnight and morning, and a night market in the clouds.
But as they get closer to the truth, Hana must reveal a secret of her ownâand risk making a choice that she will never be able to take back.
âHighly recommended . . . Readers who have been swept up in the cozy charm of Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi and The Dallergut Dream Department Store by Miye Lee will fall hard for the mix of magical realism, fantasy mystery, and star-crossed romance.ââLibrary Journal (starred review)
