◆ The Reason for its Long-Term Success – 'Voices of Empathy' Continue Unabated

This book, by an author active as a book critic and literary critic, dispels the misconception that 'writing reviews requires literary talent and vocabulary,' and introduces methods for anyone to speak about what they 'love' in their own words with 'a few simple tips'.

Ms. Miyake states as follows:

'Talking about works you love is talking about the wonder of your life.'

By expressing the charm of what you 'stan' (push) in your own words, you can gain confidence in your own 'likes' – this message has moved the hearts of many readers and earned support.

Following its publication, it garnered significant attention on social media, and thanks to you, has now surpassed 300,000 copies sold. On social media and in the media, we have received numerous accolades such as 'I can only empathize!' and 'It's packed with hints for putting my thoughts into words.'
