I just adore Keiko!

Keiko works part-time in a convenience store. She lives & loves her job. But the rest of the world would prefer her to be 'normal'. & she doesn't want to upset anyone.

This was a gorgeous, funny book about trying to fit in, but preferring to be happy. If you've ever given up a customer-service role for something 'with prospects', or fended off 'helpful' marriage suggestions from old friends, you might just identify with her.
