Ages 16 and up. Discover the genre of “healing fiction,” which is typically translated from Japanese and/or Korean (Iyashikei), and features cozy contemporary settings that commonly involve libraries, bookstores, coffee shops, and cats. Healing fiction is a popular literary genre focused on comforting, slow-paced stories that help readers soothe emotional burnout, loneliness, and grief. These cozy, feel-good stories also often incorporate an element of magical realism. Our selected title is Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi.

Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi tells emotional, human stories about love and regret using a unique time-travel rule in a cozy setting. Join the discussion! This is a new series offered by Kent County Public Library.
