   Book 134: There's No Such Thing As An Easy Job. This was a story about a middle aged woman who burns out of a job and goes to an employment agency and takes a string of odd jobs: bus ad writer, surveillance footage reviewer, park hut space-filler &c. It's quirky and goes places you wouldn't expect. It's translated from Japanese into British English which took me a few pages to get used to, but overall it was a good relatable read.
