New! The boss is too stupid to function

Two years ago I wrote about «The boss is too stupid» (店長がバカすぎて) by Hayami Kazumasa, and here the other day I saw a familiar sight at the bookstore;

It was a sequel to that book! Apparently it came out in September, but I had been too busy getting my driver’s license to notice.

I was quite on the fence about what to do, of course I wanted to read it but after trying to read the sequel to 麦本三歩の好きなもの　by Yoru Sumine last year and feeling like I was trying to fit into an old pair of jeans 30kilos later…

Two weeks later I decided to jump in and try it on anyway and it was like coming home.

There’s a starbucks inside the bookstore so I got a gingerbread latte and sat down in a comfy orange sofa. My drink went largely undrunk as I was absorbed back into the bookstore world.

Darjeeling has gotten bigger since the first book but the content remains the same and I am happy. A good book to end the year with.
