I do love whenever I find a book series where I want to take each book and swallow them up because they’re so good. Now, to be fair, I haven’t read the next books, but I’m pretty sure they will also be great. Personally, I really love the way that, although each of the four stories in each book is about a different character and why they time travel, they still are connected through a common thread of the people who run the café. Also the reveal about the Woman in White? Crazy.

Oh, how this one made me absolutely cry. I adore these characters; Kazu, Miki, Nagare. The people that come into their cafe and the stories and how they intertwine with the first book (albeit lightly) is just *chefs kiss*.
