I really liked this, the book is a series of stories (they are connected and involve the same characters) of people who travel through time through this cafe. There are rules that need to be followed which makes it complicated to do, one of them being you can only stay as long as you have a fresh cup of coffee and you must finish it before the coffee gets cold.

This is a pretty cozy read, and I enjoyed it. :)

I don’t know what it is about Japanese novela but they are always a joy to read. I love the slice of life quality that this novel brings. It doesn’t try to push a story, but more so ties up ends on the characters lives to help the be at peace. I listened to it as an audiobook and it was just as heartwarming.
