Good Books: Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

April 06, 2023

The maiden book recommendation post! I plan on keeping these posts short + sweet without any spoilers. I rate with a 1-5 system & will only post 4's or above! You can find my rating system at the bottom of this post.

Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi
Overall Rating: ♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎
A super fun read with multiple story lines grounded in the setting of a special coffee shop that is famous for the rumor that it can grant people the power to travel through time. There's a catch though! The catch is in the form of a rigid set of rules, one of which involves the title of the book. A beautiful collection of very, very human stories that are both relatable and that will play on your heart strings. Will possibly make you contemplate the what-if's/what+who would you want to visit under the same parameters.

Here is my 1-5 rating system:
It is the system I use when I rate on Goodreads too if you are looking for a surplus of book recs across a wide range of genres!

♥︎ - Trash. I abandoned this book.
♥︎♥︎ - Not so hot. Weak writing, but kind of-maybe gripping in some way? I most likely powered through because there was enough there that made me wonder. Would not recommend.
♥︎♥︎♥︎ - Decent! I enjoyed it, but perhaps it lacked substance. I like to call this rating my "sugar". Tasty, but not nourishing. Just fun. Would recommend if you're looking for something light & easy.
♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎ - Very good & I enjoyed it. Would recommend to if it seemed like a good fit.
♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎ - Incredible! Plot, writing style, characters, world building (if applicable) is top-shelf! Would highly recommend up-down, side to side, & backwards! 5's are books I like to have on my personal bookshelf in case the world were to end as we knew it and we had to start over.
