Before Your Memory Fades by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

Just finished reading this novel and I enjoyed it!

Quick synopsis: basically a short story novel containing 4 short stories following different people who visit this cafe in Japan to travel back to the past or into the future. All stories are different and motives are different as well. There’s rules to traveling thru time from this cafe which are there’s nothing you can do in the past to change the present, only people you can meet in the past are those who have visited the cafe, in order to travel thru time you have to sit in the specific seat in the cafe and can’t leave it once you travel, and lastly you must return before your coffee gets cold. Highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a quick read and enjoys cute little stories. It’s part of a 3 book series with the 4th one coming out in November 2023. Be warned, this book can be a little emotional and sad but also has wonderful life messages and themes.

Rating: 7/10

Just finished the first 5 chapters. It's kind of reminding me of a Christmas Story (or whatever the one with Scrooge is called.) So he hasn't gotten his 7 days yet but I'm wondering if he's going to go live his life a little bit or make amends with people like Patricia who he had screwed over. I always think books about the afterlife are super interesting and I'm curious to see where it goes. The Reaper (mei) took him to the ferryman, and I'm wondering if he's going to be stuck with them for a while or if he's going to cross. Also side note I'm envisioning Wallace as the food reviewer from Ratatouille hahahah.

So far i'm into the book but I'm hoping it doesn't have the same story as Scrooge where he realizes there's more to life than work or money. Hopefully it goes more in depth and surprises us in some ways.

Hi everyoneeee, I created this discussion forum so we can all have a place to talk about the books, ask questions and read other peoples replies! I've never used this website before but we'll see how it goes. So the format I'm thinking to do is I'll update the discussion board every week with the break up of chapters and you can post whatever you want/however you feel about the book so far. Since I'm hella curious and love reading other peoples ideas I'll probably post random discussion questions too which you can answer if you wanttttt. I'll most likely post/read replies/update the board for the following week every Sunday! Please send this link to any friends who want to join. If we have multiple boards going with different books feel free to read/post in any of those boards! Once we're done with the first book (Under The Whispering Door by TJ Klune) I'll make a poll to vote on the next book we read. Let me know any book suggestions you have tooooo. Read at your own pace! Peace and love, Kikiiii <3  ;)
