Before the coffee gets cold
I don’t remember now, why I picked this book. Maybe it was the description.
NOW AN LA TIMES BESTSELLER
AN INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
The first book in the five million-copy bestselling magical realism series
I did not know what to expect from the book.
The book is a great what if - what if you could travel back in time? Of course there are rules - you can’t change the present, you can stay till the coffee goes cold, and so on.
At its core though, these are stories of people dealing through loss, through love, and so on.
It started simple enough, a woman dealing with heart break. Mid way through though, I can across the husband-wife story. Somehow, it spoke to me. It made me almost cry. I guess these things are personal. What spoke to me, may not speak to you.
My expectations from the book increased at this point. I did not find the same depth in the rest of the book. As I said, it’s a personal thing. Your mileage may vary.
