Best Wishes from the Full Moon Coffee Shop
Translated by Jordan Taylor
THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER FROM JAPAN. HALF A MILLION COPIES AND TRANSLATED INTO 20 LANGUAGES
Welcome back to the Full Moon Coffee Shop. What do you really want this Christmas?
At the Full Moon Coffee Shop, we don't take your order. Instead, we bring you desserts and drinks - selected just for you.
In Japanese myth, cats are symbols of good luck. If you are kind to them, they'll return the favour one day. And if you are kind to the right cat, you might find yourself invited to a celestial cafe. The Full Moon Coffee Shop normally materialises on the night of the full moon - with one exception every year. This Christmas, the sagacious cats open their doors once more to all lost souls in need of a guiding light.
The season's first customer, Satomi, catches wind of her boyfriend's plan to propose on Christmas Eve, and feels torn between love and success. Her disaffected intern, Koyuki, has her own reasons for dreading the day, ever since her father died in a car accident. And Junko's estranged father has fallen gravely ill, driving her to visit home after decades away.
In this festive follow-up to the cosy classic, the customers of the Full Moon Coffee Shop stand at a wintry crossroads in their lives. With the help of some feline divinations, they will find the courage to follow their stars into the new year.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
