Nagare's mother, Yukari, who owns the café is travelling, so the the café is run by Nagare and Kazu in her absence. The wonderful experience of a heartwarming book, in my case it was one story at a time, I didn't want to mix them up. Many of the people that we meet share a very similar story as to why they wish to go into the past, to the point where they didn’t feel very distinct. The other thing I didn't see coming was a fact that Yukari Tokita is happened to be the author of a One Hundred Questions book.

When that happens the person gifted with the most precious thing will be able to fight on a little more. While I did enjoy the characters and their stories and some beautifully penned passages, I felt the narrative to be repetitive (at this point there was no need to repeat the rules of time travel so many times throughout the book) and lacking in depth as compared to the previous installments. That and the number of people introduced in the cafe (now with a much needed prompt list at the front) made me find it more difficult to focus on the time travel stories.Bit hopeful too for the old gentleman ghost as I thought one of the story would be about him but none yet; was wondering as well whether he was the same ghost from Café Funiculi Funicula or a different one(?

Some days that person who is chasing their dreams will not be able to find the strength to keep going. Overall, while I did enjoy this book, I didn't find it as emotionally hard-hitting or satisfying as the previous installment, Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Tales from the Café, which remains my favorite among the three books in the series. This charmingly magical novel is about discovering happiness despite the pasts that we desperately want to revisit. I loved how he built his characters, so that each were distinctive, even just by how they spoke or how they were described.I also absolutely loved every single character, unlike Tales from the Cafe, which was a little bit more difficult in terms of my liking towards a specific character. These two quotes reaffirmed my thinking that our heart is the eyes of the soul, and if we truly want to know the person, we should never disregard this ability of another way to see. Before Your Memory Fades is the third book in the Before Your Coffee Gets Cold Series by Toshikazu Kawaguchi and I truly loved it.
