◆NHK "Asaichi" Live Studio Appearance Decided!

◆Reason for Long-Selling Success──Unstoppable "Voices of Empathy"

In this book, the author, who is active as a book critic and literary critic, dispels the misconception that "writing impressions and reviews requires literary talent and vocabulary," and introduces methods that allow anyone to express their "love" in their own words with "a few simple tips."

Miyake states the following:

"To talk about what you love is to talk about the wonderfulness of your life."

This message, which enables readers to gain confidence in their own "likes" by expressing the appeal of their "oshi" (favorite person/thing) in their own words, has resonated with and gained support from many readers.

Since its publication, the book has received a great response on social media and has now thankfully surpassed 300,000 copies in sales. We have received numerous glowing reviews on social media and in the media, such as "It's nothing but empathy!" and "It's packed with tips for putting your thoughts into words."
