What You Are Looking For Is in the Library by Michiko AoyamaMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Five people all feel stuck in different ways and find themselves going to the community library where a felting librarian points them to books they request, and then one more that seems to have nothing to do with their problems, but which holds all the answers. The thing I enjoyed is that it points out that we can get insights out of all sorts of books--children's books, how-to books, non-ficton, fiction. It's up to us to make the connections, but if we allow quiet moments of contemplation, we can garner wisdom in all sorts of literature. The insights the patrons find are all of the find good in the now, be brave, and all ends are beginnings sort of vein. Nothing earth-shattering, but still all good reminders.
