Book Review : Tokyo Travel Sketchbook

 

This book captures Amaia’s experiences during her month-long journey in Tokyo. She recounts each moment of her stay through engaging short stories accompanied by captivating illustrations.

This book not only intended for those planning to visit Tokyo, but also for anyone seeking deeper insights into the city - knowledge that short-term travelers may not easily experience. The skeches are charming and engaging, making me want to read the book again and again. 

Due to its day-by-day, diary-like format, the book feels somewhat unstructured and does not provide a clear thematic focus or an index for easy reference.

The book is recommended for adult readers (18+) due to inclusion of mature-themed sketches. While it does not function as a conventional travel guide - offering neither culinary nor destination recommendations- it remains valuable for prospective visitors to Japan by helping them better understand cultural nuances and minimize potential culture shock.
