Books do more than entertain. They challenge us, change us, and shape the way we see the world. That’s why I loved The Cat Who Saved Books by Sosuke Natsukawa—a story about a boy, a talking cat, and the deeper meaning of books.

In this novel, the main character is drawn into different worlds where books are under threat—whether by people who hoard them without reading them, or those who think only “useful” books should exist. It’s a reminder that stories are more than just words on a page. They carry meaning, mystery, and magic.

This book resonated with me because it reflects my own love of storytelling—both as a reader and as a writer. In this episode, I talk about why stories matter and how they shape us in ways we don’t always expect.
