One day, I found an orange cat on the riverbank. Then, after getting dumped and losing my job, I embarked on a streak of bad luck. With nowhere else to go, I followed the cat's suggestion and returned to the dream interpretation shop my grandmother had left me. There, I entered a strange world of dreams, helping visitors come to terms with their obsessions and fulfill their wishes.
My biggest headache was that clients always showed up at night, and every one of them was strange: an oriole in love with a swallow, a little fox trying to behave like a proper human, a museum docent possessed by a dagger, a fat man who wanted to become a butterfly, a boy with no shadow, a bounty hunter who hunted dreams and was neither good nor evil, and more...
After experiencing all kinds of dreams, I finally found the courage to face the deepest pain in my heart and discovered what would keep me going.
What a great book! The heroine and her experiences in the story reminded me of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", which is also a fantasy story and also full of exploration of human nature. Moreover, the cute pet elements in the book, such as the talking cat, reminded me of the cat teacher in "Natsume's Book of Friends". This book has both suspenseful and exciting plots as well as warm and healing moments. Just like the relationship between my girlfriend and I, there are conflicts and sweetness. I will keep going with my girlfriend.
