#107 before the coffee gets cold

#107 before the coffee gets cold

The first of our new format and we begin with a book series we've both spoken about a lot before.


Before the Coffee Gets Cold is a 2015 novel by Toshikazu Kawaguchi. It tells of a café in Tokyo that allows its customers to travel back in time, as long as they return before their coffee gets cold. The story originally began as a play in 2010, before being adapted into a novel in 2015.
