Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

“I was so absorbed in the things that I couldn’t change, I forgot the most important thing.”


i really love that it highlights the need for closure and how it affects people as human beings in general. I do think you need to be able to relate to the stories to be feel deeply invested and it’s unfortunate that out of the three stories, I was only partly invested in certain very specific scenes. It’s not too heavy and was a welcome side read from my other heartbreaking and intense read. It has the right amount of nostalgic and poignancy that won’t leave you too destroyed.
