Unique, lyrical, fun, and moving.  The character development was incredible for such a short novel and for all the characters that are introduced.  I loved how all the chapters told separate stories but how they all intertwine and connect at the same time.  So interesting to read a book that only has one setting (it never leaves the cafe) but maintains such intrigue. Love the concept, and would absolutely recommend! I loved the cultural Japanese elements and conversational styles the book portrays, but how it’s still totally approachable and beautiful reading as an English speaker.
