“The Chibi-Chibi Bookstore is a heartwarming and rewarding reading experience with some surprises along the way!” —Lucille Guarino, author of Elizabeth’s Mountain
On her twenty-fourth birthday, Sierra Stevens discovers her parents had actually been married. So, she embarks on a journey that will change her life forever. Following a faded letter from the 1950s, she travels to Tokyo to search for the Japanese family she never knew existed.
She lands at the Chibi-Chibi Bookstore—a cluttered, charming place where past and present collide and love arrives in surprising forms. As Sierra navigates complicated relationships, an unconventional romance, and her mother’s flair for chaos, she begins to understand that family isn’t always defined by blood. But when secrets begin to unravel, Sierra must decide whether the life she’s built in Tokyo is just a temporary escape—or the home she’s been searching for all along.
Set in contemporary Japan, The Chibi-Chibi Bookstore is a heartwarming story of cross-cultural connections and the families we choose. Perfect for readers who love international settings, cozy romance, and the courage it takes to open your heart to love—and of course, for those who love books and bookstores!
