### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Equally Remarkable! 🥰
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2024*

Author Toshikazu Kawaguchi has once again delivered a wonderful story! The second book is equally as remarkable as the first one!! This writer is truly talented in crafting unique narratives that appear to imbue meaning into the lives of all, even the audience. Both me and you!Continuing from the first book, book two maintains the same characters. The stories from the cafe in the second book introduce new characters while the readers discover their stories. Visiting the cafe once more, characters either revisit the past or look into the future, all before the coffee grows cold. Despite the certainty that nothing can be altered from past events, going back or taking a glimpse into the future provides the opportunity to express unsaid words or shed light on what was previously unclear and unfamiliar.Reading the series "Before the coffee gets Cold" is truly a beautiful experience, allowing one to uncover the wisdom that Kawaguchi introduces.I strongly suggest these books. Anticipating book three, "Before Your Memory Fades", is now my next step.

*by J***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024*

Honestly? Idk why I payed for shipping when the packaging was AWFUL, the book is really good, nothing against it, but Amazon's handling? Terrible, the cover was damaged and dirty, tragic

    Another Chance to Travel in Time Before Your Coffee Gets Cold
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2023*

I enjoyed the first book in this series by Toshikazu Kawaguchi so much that I immediately grabbed the second, "Tales from the Cafe."  The setting is an out-of-the-way cafe in Tokyo where people brave enough to sit in a particular chair and to drink a cup of coffee that must be poured by a woman member of the Tokita family only when the mysterious "woman in white" gets up once a day to go the bathroom,can visit the past, or even the future. The rules from Book 1, "Before Your Coffee Gets Cold," still apply. I recommend that readers tackle the books in order, because some action in Book 2 turns out to relate to events or people in Book 1. For example, readers will find out how the "woman in white" from Book 1 became a ghost.  Will she ever have a chance to leave her "permanent" seat in the cafe?  One prime rule about the time travel is that the short trip will not change anything from the past.  If a person is dead today, for example, nothing a traveler can do in the past will change that. I love the characters for their sensitivity, their good heartedness and that they are willing to risk becoming a ghost if they do not finish their coffee before it gets cold. In this installment, four people take the plunge and emerge with a new outlook on life. This fantasy-filled book is a refreshing look at finding hope and leaving despair behind.
