Recs if you like Hot Chocolate on Thursday...

A list of cozy fiction for when the world is heavy and the Book Club book is too much.

Books are cozy based on other lists or cute-munity reccs. Your milage may vary.

Literature that features cats, coffee shops, food, books, and sometimes a bit of magic. Cozy and healing.

Cozy books about cafes, libraries, bookstores, small shops and cats, often with some touches of magical realism.

Not restricting this list to only Korean or Japanese authors, although most of them are. Some books may not be translated into English

Any genre of book is allowed- requirements are simply that coziness abounds!

A shelf of tiny wonders from Japan and Korea. Moonlit book nooks, sleepy towns, lantern-lit evenings, silver rain, and tender stories that offer comfort. Small in length, but rich in extraordinary hidden moments of everyday life.

Comforting and heartwarming short stories you can read in a day. Cosy and touching. ❤️ Daily struggles of humans solved by the power of love, friendship, and sometimes an animal. 😊

Read in between heavier books. 🇯🇵

all the cosy, good vibes. Mainly Japanese & Korean 🇯🇵🇰🇷

Fiction books set in Japan
