I simply loved this book. Very heartwarming tales. I cried reading the last chapter: “Mother and child”.

3/5 ⭐️ Sweet and endearing with a large cast of charming characters! This book explores a lot of tender and meaningful topics including grief, regret, family, love, hope, and growth. The translation was awkward at times, the rules of the café are repetitive, and the plot dragged at times. But overall, I enjoyed this!
