Before the Coffee Gets Cold -- Toshikazu Kawaguchi


A fun light read. A chair in a café in Japan lets you travel back and forth in time...but, only for as long as your cup of coffee stays warm. Your time travelling does not change the past or the future, but you are allowed a glimpse of what was and what is to come. The book has the feeling of a fairy tale. The interconnected stories are sweet. In fact, I'm sure charming will be the word you hear to describe the enchanted world of the café. It's the kind of book you give as a gift, knowing everyone will find it a heartwarming read.
