Finished: Before the Coffee Gets Cold (Kawaguchi) A lovely book about a coffee shop where you can go back in time to relive a moment with someone for a few minutes. There are very strict rules to be followed, such as: you must sit in a particular chair in the coffee shop and cannot leave the chair during your visit; nothing you say or do will change the future, so don't expect that; and most importantly, you must be done before your cup of coffee gets cold, so your time to say or do what you want to do is very limited. The story focuses on a few main characters as we see their stories, read their histories and see why they choose to go back in time. Most involve regret...regret of not telling someone how much you loved them when they decided to end a relationship; regret of avoiding a sibling for years, only to have that sibling die in an accident; regret of not knowing how your spouse truly felt before Alzheimer's set in; and regret of never seeing the baby you have chosen to give birth to, even though carrying her to full term will mean your certain death. All stories woven together with just a few characters, and done so in both a heart wrenching and uplifting way. Good book!
