"The Lending Room of Life" is a story full of love, hope and help.
The librarian, who does not look very kind and friendly, often sits at the counter of the narrow library borrowing room, pricking balls of wool with needles, doing small handicrafts that look like wool felt.
In fact, she is very good at listening to others telling their stories and confusions, and carefully recommends an unexpected book to each visitor. Those kind words and the words in the book are encouraging and changing the lives of others in a gentle way...
Reader comments
This unexpectedly beautiful book is a collection of stories composed of five people of different ages, genders, and identities. The story revolves around how they solve their own difficulties in life. Although these five people do not know each other, they are inextricably linked because of the borrowing room of the Exchange House. Their dilemma is also a common problem for modern people today. From these simple yet profound stories, we can truly feel the warmth and courage of being encouraged, and learn to see ourselves and the world from a new perspective.
"Is it valuable? Can it be put to any use? Maybe it is this value concept that has been bothering me all this time. However, it is rare to be tempted——"
Everyone reflects something of themselves, and every little story is warm and heartwarming, conveying vitality to the wilted self!
The protagonists in each chapter are at different stages of life and have similar confusions, but they all work hard to find solutions to their problems, and this is reading.
In the borrowing room, Komachi gives everyone who comes to borrow books a personalized hand-knitted pendant, which makes every confused protagonist feel warm... My understanding is: Komachi is not just an observer of other people's lives, she also participates in other people's lives to a certain extent, and even affects other people's lives...
"However, before I do something, I never think about whether it will be useful later. I just think that the excitement is enough to be a reason to try."
If you take action after your heart beats, you will have a goal, and you will feel that your life extends infinitely towards the sea and sky. Instead of wandering around in confusion, it is better to let go and stride forward. Every path will give life extraordinary meaning.
It expresses the most delicate emotions from the most ordinary life. It empathizes and at the same time wants to work hard to realize one's dreams. It is a very healing book. Each story tells the most common things happening around them from the perspective of different protagonists. But in the end, it is found that these protagonists all know each other and influence others, just like a merry-go-round. Everyone is the protagonist, and everyone affects others before and after. They form a circle, and the story jumps around them, constantly rotating and developing.
The writing is delicate, and the ordinary people and things in life touch us bit by bit. When the author wrote these words, he may not have thought too much. Readers can see that they have their own emotional resonance under different bonds.
The distress and confusion of every ordinary person in the book made me more or less sympathetic, and everyone's life, insights and gains made me even more gratified. Maybe life is like this, constantly comprehending and constantly confused, just like the principle of negation of negation, constantly getting closer to the truth, and making continuous progress in a zigzag way.
In the middle of reading, I just thought that the people who appeared later were inextricably related to the people who appeared before. Only when I read it at the end did I realize that a closed loop can be formed. I feel like I can draw a relationship diagram like a spider web.
It is a very warm and healing book. Everyone thinks that the book or wool felt helped them, but it is not true. It is just that the answer is always in their hearts. It is the book or wool felt that gives them the strength to persevere. Life is like this. No matter what the situation is, if you look outside more, think better and do better, everything will change.
The words are simple, warm and healing. When reading, you will feel peaceful and gain strength. Every ordinary day in life and simple little things are worth cherishing.
It's been a long time since I've been touched by the content of a book. I can relate to the psychology, stories, and experiences of many of the characters. Compared to the author's other two "drink" series, which are soothing and healing, this book is more profound, and the touches in it are more direct to the heart. This is a good book worth reading over and over again! !
This book reminded me of my confusion and helplessness when I first had a baby, and the librarian in the book was like a kind friend, using books to guide me. It made me understand that in the lending room of life, we can borrow countless life-changing books. I will recommend this book to the mothers around me, hoping that they can also gain strength and courage from it.
There is a connection between each short story, which is very interesting and healing.
Like it, worth reading again and again
It is very healing, touches the soul, resonates, and is worth reading!
A very good book, every story is good
This book is very warm, philosophical, and thought-provoking. It seems that I saw a lot of my own confusions in this book and got some answers. The most important thing is that I am more determined to take action. No matter what it is, don't think too much, just take action first. If you fail, you fail, so what. Grasp the feeling of your heart, follow your heart, and move forward bravely. If you feel tired, stop and take a rest before starting. Life is your own and does not concern other people. Each of us will not be younger than we are today, so just do what you want to do and don't care about other people's eyes and opinions. The most important thing is to make yourself happy.
The language is simple and easy to understand, and the truth is profound.
Each story is thought-provoking and has a coherent network of characters just like "Jieyou Grocery Store". It is well worth reading.
I feel warm in my heart after reading it
A book suitable for quiet reading
It's really good, very touching
Live in the moment, enlighten life
A very warm book
I particularly like Relieve Anxiety. I have read Monday's Drinking Matcha and this book. I like them both. No mistakes. 😍
I finally finished reading it and it's so shocking. Each chapter seems to be independent, but in fact it is connected. Every time I see the characters who appeared in the previous chapter in the next chapter, I am shocked, as if I have met them quietly in the corner. Many plots contain subtle and profound meanings. I have learned and gained a lot of power from it💪 It is really beautiful. I really hope that there is such a wonderful place in reality. Recommended🥰
Life is full of oceans, and as an individual, you just have to enjoy it.
Really good-looking! ! ! ! I can always find sentences that make my heart move in this book🥰
A large microcosm of a small place, very warm, and the stories are not long, but each one is fresh and full of vitality.
The author's writing is really good. It's the only book I've read that I plan to read again before I finish it. I like it very much and am willing to give it 5 stars🌟
