As the fourth installment in Kawaguchi’s renowned series, Before We Say Goodbye offers a familiar yet profoundly moving structure. For those who have journeyed through the previous books, the narrative pattern remains consistent: a small, subterranean cafe in Tokyo, a set of unyielding rules, and a steaming cup of coffee that acts as a bridge between the present and the past. There is an undeniable aesthetic harmony in reading this book during rainy weather. The sound of the rain outside mirrors the quiet, introspective atmosphere of the Funiculi Funicula cafe. To truly appreciate this story, one needs nothing more than a quiet corner, a warm cup of coffee, and the luxury of time. At its core, the series continues to pose the same existential question: "If you could go back in time, knowing you cannot change the present, who would you choose to meet?" While some might see the repetition as a flaw, I see it as a meditative ritual. Ultimately, I would define this work as a poignant chronicle of grief. It explores the weight of things left unsaid and the quiet strength required to finally let go. It reminds us that while we cannot rewrite our history, we can always choose to change how we carry our memories into the future.

Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi revolves around a small café where customers are given the rare chance to travel back in time. However, time travel in this café comes with strict and unusual rules that must be followed. Most importantly, the traveler must return to the present before the coffee gets cold. Through a series of interconnected stories, the novel explores people’s desires to revisit past moments—often to say what was left unsaid or to find closure. While the past cannot be changed, these journeys reveal how understanding, acceptance, and emotional growth can reshape the present. Gentle, reflective, and emotionally resonant, Before the Coffee Gets Cold is less about changing time and more about the power of human connection and the meaning of fleeting moments.

This is my 2nd time reading it. When I heard that other books were added to this series, I wanted to continue, but I felt like I had forgotten the plot. That's why I read it again. There is a cafe that enables you to travel in time once but for that you have to visit that cafe in the past. There are 4 stories about people who'd like to experience time travel. Their stories about their loved ones are really touching like the Kamogawa Food Detectives. However, I've loved Kamogawa Food Detectives more than this one. Of course, I'm going to read the other books in the series. I'm wondering what they are about. Who would you like to see if you had a chance?

have read Toshikazu Kawaguchi's Before the Coffee Gets Cold #1 and Tales from the Café #2. This time, the stories happened in Café Donna Donna on the hillside of Mount Hakodate, Japan instead of Café Funiculi Funicula in books #1 and #2. Customers have chances to travel back in time to whenever they wanted in these cafes according to the specified rules and attached to a particular seat. They can travel from the past or from the future too. The customers must finish their meeting with someone before the coffee gets cold. I enjoyed reading every story of the customers who came to visit the Café for time travel. Most of the stories inside the book are very heartwarming and touching.

I have been following Melikşah for a long time and he wrote a book i think It is very exciting. I ordered immediately and the same day it arrived. I read it in one sitting with a mug of coffee. I loved the AZ TT series so much that it was impossible not to be excited about the book. Short stories written in simple and fluent language. Mourning, death, relationships and farewells.. it's a very intimate book. Those who have suffered traumatic loss will recognize themselves in his text. Absolutely heartbreaking..

Rahat seçim için ödüllendirilmezsiniz. Own The Day, Own Your Life Tek bir gün hayatınız gibidir. Her parça birbiriyle bağlantılıdır, yaptığınız her seçim gelecekte yapacağınız seçimleri etkiler. Gerçek dönüşümü gerçekleştirmek için tek bir şeyi değiştirmeye değil, bir gün değişmeye odaklanmalısınız. Şimdi sizden bir yıl sonraki kendinizi hayal etmenizi istiyorum. Hiçbir şey yapmasanız da, bir yıl içinde farklı olacağınızı biliyorsunuz. Ve şimdi ve o zaman arasında yapacağınız seçimler bu farkı belirleyecektir. Kendi hayatınızın yazarı olduğunuzu unutmayın; Günün sahibi ol, hayatının sahibi ol. Dedikleri gibi: Küçük şeyler zamanla birleştiğinde büyük sonuçlar doğurma eğilimindedir. Sonuçta evrimin özü budur. Notlar: -Enerji ve zaman eksikliği, insanların günlerini optimize etmeye çalışırken karşılaştığı iki ana sorundur. -Sabahları yapmanız gereken ilk şey kahve içmek yerine bir bardak suya uzanmaktır. Uyku sırasında insan vücudu çok susuz kalır. Paranızın karşılığını biraz daha almak için biraz limon suyu ve küçük bir tutam deniz tuzu ekleyin. -Kahvaltılık yiyeceklerin çoğu rafine şeker ve çok az lifle doludur. Bu, sabahın erken saatlerinde insülin tepkisinin tetiklenmesine yol açarak sizi uyuşuk ve sinirli hale getirebilir, bu da güne başlamanın harika bir yolu değildir. -Modern yaşam tarzı bizi atalarımızın sahip olduğu mineraller, besinler ve iyi bakteriler gibi pek çok olumlu yönden mahrum bırakıyor. Sığır eti, süt ürünleri ve yumurta gibi günümüzün gıda kaynaklarının çoğu, serbestçe otlayabilen hayvanlardan elde edilen benzer gıdalarda bulunan besin maddelerinin çoğundan yoksun olan, tahılla beslenen kaynaklardan gelmektedir. Yetiştirilen bitkilerimizin ve sebzelerimizin çoğu, doğal gübreleme ve kompostlama yoluyla besin profilini yenilemek için yeterli zaman verilmeyen toprakta
