“A small cafe has something odd and magical—if someone sits in a particular chair and a cup of coffee is poured, they can travel to the past for as long as it takes their cup to cool. In this slender story, the lives of visitors and staff intertwine, and four hopeful people sit in the chair. While this book deals with different kinds of loss, it’s ultimately warm and uplifting.” -LibraryReads, November 2020
