Teenager Rintaro Natsuki is a hikikomori, a nerdy introvert who would like nothing better than the company of books. But the bookstore he inherits from his grandfather is dying and the teen must accept its inevitable fate. Or must he? One day a tabby cat appears at the bookstore pleading for Rintaro’s help: books are being mistreated and the teenager and his friend can help. The three set off on a series of such adventures (entering “labyrinths”) and the charming ending wraps up endearingly if a tad predictably. A warm and inviting story that will please ardent book lovers everywhere.
