I liked this one slightly less than the first 2 but still a 4.5 from me! I am enjoying this series so much and how heartwarming they are. So excited to read book 4!

I've absolutely loved both of the previous books in this series but this one felt kinda forced. The repeated overexplaining of concepts like burnout and anxiety (???) felt really patronising and read so much like mansplaining. No thanks

Me gustó muchísimo más que el segundo. Creo que la magia de estos libros recae en leerlos muy separados unos de otros, no es la típica trilogía que deberías leerte de jalon porque te va a parecer demasiado repetitivo. Dicho esto, creo que encontrarte con estos libros de vez en cuando da calorcito a tu corazón por ser una historia que se siente familiar, y es muy bonito de recordar.

Igual no creo que ningún libro que saque este autor sobre está cafetería va a tener el mismo impacto que antes de que se enfríe el café. A menos que saqué una historia de como pasó todo o el origen de porque se puede viajar en el tiempo, realmente todo es igual, solo diferentes experiencias

This book got better as it went along, but it felt very repetitive compared to the other ones. I still enjoyed the stories, but felt that the need to repeat information over and over was disappointing.
