*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*

The latest installments of the Before the Coffee Gets Cold series by Tosikazu Kawaguchi, this story continues the tradition of gentle, purposeful stories meant to inspire reflection in the reader. As with the previous books, the writing style (or perhaps the intention behind the writing style) is stalted and perhaps overly repative-- which is probably a result of it being a translated work.

This book is perfect for anyone looking for a quick, but emotionally moving, read.
