3.5/5
September has been really good book-wise, for I could finish 3 in one month which is a rare treat for me.
Before the Coffee Gets Cold was on my TBR for this year and I am not disappointed even though I won't go all out in praise. The translation might be where the depth of language is missed but the intricacy of the book was not lost. The interconnected stories, the varying emotions, it was a simple, pleasurable read.

The point of the book was also simple and put across nicely. Time travel is not a new concept in Japanese work (in my knowledge) but it always fascinates me to see the emotional play rather than the hardcore science of it.

The book was a good read, simple, nothing spectacular but that was the point of it.
