*READING BOOKS in CAFÉS*

Japan is chapters ahead of much of the world in reinventing what a bookstore can be amid the fight for survival.

The “book and cafe” concept began in 2003 when the Tsutaya Bookstore in Tokyo’s Roppongi Hills complex allowed customers to browse unbought books over coffee.

There are also some small café and what the locals mention it as ‘ruko’, small restaurants plus living rooms in a line of small businesses buildings in Jakarta, where I used to drink coffee + 🍜 noodles, then I can choose some limited books available in this small restaurant. I was also happy to leave two of my published books in those cafes, hoping other visitors may also enjoy reading my books.
