This was an interesting concept. I did love the background information of the coffee culture in Japan. For me the book was a little slow, but I would recommend it to those who have ever needed the closure of moments missed.
4 🌟 I was a bit confused starting this book as I didn't realize it was 4 different interconnected short stories. I think it may have lost a little something in translation. It was repetitive in stating the rules.. Even within a story to the point of being a bit annoying. I did get teary eyed in the 2nd and 4th story. The overall theme of the stories were easy to get, even if the telling of them fell a little flat. I also think the culture difference between the author and myself led to some of the phrasing and tone of passages to just be odd for me.
I actually enjoyed it. It has this calm, melancholic vibe all through the book. It's sad, but in a quiet, comforting sort of way.
Very whimsy, with unique storylines and relatable characters. I’ve read several time traveling books before, but I think this one does the best job at it.
