WHAT IS YOUR ONE TRUE WISH?
The INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING Japanese phenomenon translated into 20 languages
Satomi is torn between her career in Tokyo and her relationship with her country-loving boyfriend, who plans to propose on Christmas Day. Meanwhile, Koyuki, Satomi's lowly intern, has been playing the role of the good girl, pretending to love her stepfather ever since her real father passed away last Christmas.
Satomi's sister-in-law, Junko, who lives in a small town with her husband and their toddler, Ayu, has a strained relationship with her abusive father who she hasn't seen since university. Her brother also left home after a particularly big fight. When their father becomes ill, both siblings return home - and discover something they never knew about him.
What are they truly wishing for? In THE FULL MOON COFFEE SHOP: ONE TRUE WISH the characters confront their past and present struggles while trying to find happiness and contentment in their lives.
THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER FROM JAPAN
Welcome back to the Full Moon Coffee Shop. What do you really want this Christmas?
HALF A MILLION COPIES AND TRANSLATED INTO 20 LANGUAGES
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 café. 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.
