THE GLOBAL BESTSELLER
Volume 1 in the Marble Café series, from the multi-million-copy bestselling author of WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS IN THE LIBRARY
Readers adore HOT CHOCOLATE ON THURSDAY:
'Slipped into my heart and warmed me, just like a cup of cocoa'
'Reminds you that everyone is living their own daily joy and pain. Heartwarming'
'This made me realise how we magically influence each other's lives without realising it'
'I felt restored reading this'
___________
Across a bridge, beneath the cherry blossom, sits the Marble Café.
Here, a woman writes in her notebook while a young waiter prepares her regular hot chocolate. Around them, customers come and go, each carrying a story of their own.
A walk along the river. Cooking the perfect tamagoyaki. Ordering a hot chocolate. Forgetting to remove your nail polish. The smallest, most ordinary acts can lead to unexpected encounters - and change a life without us ever knowing it.
Told through twelve beautifully interconnected stories, HOT CHOCOLATE ON THURSDAY follows the customers and staff whose lives cross at the Marble Café, gradually revealing the invisible threads that connect them.
Tender, surprising and full of Michiko Aoyama's unique insight into everyday life, this is a novel about the extraordinary connections hidden inside the ordinary - and the countless ways we change one another without even realising it.
