“Before the Coffee Gets Cold” by Toshikazu Kawaguchi is a heartwarming novel set about a small café in Tokyo where people can travel through time for a short while: until their coffee gets cold.

In four heartfelt stories, the book explores love, family, regret and the conversations we wish we could have had.

It’s a gentle reminder that even if we can’t change the past, we can find peace and move forward with a lighter heart.
