My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I thought the premise of this book was so clever. Someone writes in a journal his sadness and hurts and pains, leaves it at a coffee shop where it is picked up by the owner, where she eventually writes her own pains, and then the book eventually gets passed around to about 6 people in total. There were some points along the way that didn't seem actually plausible, but in reality, it was such a cute and charming book, who cares. People have flaws, as do the people in this book, and yet we can see that despite these flaws, it's ok. And it's ok to forgive people, too, which is key in my opinion to happiness. That last part was my own interjection. Not sure if it was a theme, but I added it anyway.
