Reviews for The Little Teashop in Tokyo

[grgenius_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I was ready for a lot of things from this story...
...to fall in love with the time and place.
...to experience the culture with eyes wide open.
...to UTTERLY DESPISE our handsome yet shifty leading man, Gabe.
...to cheer on our lovely yet under confident leading lady, Fiona.
...to see the world from a new angle with just the right lighting.

What I wasn't prepared...
...to experience the vast differences between the traditions of old and new, which equally thrive like a neon heartbeat.
...to change my mind about Gabe, however begrudgingly, when he finally gets his **** together...even when it might simply be too late.
...to adore our Miss Fi so much for her fresh take on the every day, her willingness to stick to her guns, and her ability to stand on her own two feet, come what may.


All in all, it was quite the trip! From the moment my eyes alighted on the lovely cover to the final flick of the epage, I was fully immersed in the story and holding my breath that every thing in fact would turn out alright. Getting to know the family she stays with, and fully taken in by the culture thanks to the author's wonderful writing, was a special bonus to an already heart warming, and smile inducing story.
