Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Gift Edition

Before the Coffee Gets Cold follows the comings and goings of a little basement café that's rumored to be able to send you to the past. However, there are specific rules you need to abide by, and the most important one is to drink the coffee before it gets cold. 

There are four stories, each one centered around a pair of people who've been to or are associated with the café. Three of them made me cry 😭 Even so, I highly recommend this book if you enjoy slice-of-life stories, magical realism, and human relationships. The writing is simple yet poignant and captures the realities of love, loss, life, and death.
