Episodic Sacarine
If you like コーヒーが冷めないうちに then you'll probably like this book.

It tells the story of a homeless man who's lost his memory who ends up working at a convenience store. Each chapter follows someone who interacts with this man and it changes their perspectives on life. Each chapter somewhat interests with each other with the final chapter releaving events from the homeless man's perspective.
Overall the story was fine, although I was really bored in the middle as the narrative descended into info dumps. The final chapter being the most info dumpee of all.
Language wise I would say this is a good book for N2 level Japanese BUT this is a translation of Korean novel and very direct at that. The direct translation of words from Korea results in some unnatural Japanese which doesn't make this story good for Language learning.
