This was a book which had been recommended to me and I had been warned that it would be an emotional roller-coaster. I was not expecting the impact that this book had - ugly crying and everything. This story focusing on 4 individuals which are woven together by one of the owners of the cafe that this takes place in. I found all of the stories hit me in the feels but especially the Nurse and pregnant Mother. I think this is because those are the characters which I relate to the most.
