Today’s PN highlight comes from an author I know many of you adore already.
The Passengers on the Hankyu Line follows the story of five strangers who travel the famously scenic Hankyu commuter train as they share, and work towards resolving their problems.

‘A Thousand Blues’ is a story that explores what it means to be human and how we can sometimes forget to act with compassion.
‘A Thousand Blues’ is set in the year 2035 where humanoids and humans co-exist.

Cheon Seon-ran expertly weaves so many themes and ideas into her narrative: isolation, reflections on happiness, disability rights, and animal dignity. There's no novel I love more than one that makes me reflect upon my own actions and ‘A Thousand Blues’ did exactly that.

It's only when we slow down that we can truly experience joy...
It’s been a while, but it’s time for a Queen Rih review ✨
We've got loads of fab titles that went up on Friday's PN, but I wanted to pull out 'A Thousand Blues'.
