Before the coffee gets cold is an insightful and heartwarming book that is very easy to read and understand. Its simple writing style it's strength but sometimes it feels like the author over-explains how the characters feel instead of trusting the readers to come to those conclusions themselves. Nonetheless, the stories are a great read, that leave a bittersweet, hopeful taste in your mouth.
