Full Moon Coffee Shop

The Full Moon Coffee Shop is a heartwarming and magical contemporary fantasy, perfect for fans of Before the Coffee Gets Cold, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop, and Butter. Under a glittering full moon, a mysterious coffee shop in Kyoto—appearing only where and when it is needed—serves fragrant teas, the finest coffees, and delicious desserts, all run by talking cats. The shop attracts customers who have lost their way in life, including a down-on-her-luck screenwriter, a lovesick TV director, a misunderstood stylist, and a failed video game developer. Guided by the shop’s feline staff on an astrological journey, each visitor is forced to confront their past and discover their destiny. As their individual paths unfold, they become mysteriously intertwined, reminding readers that it is never too late to find one’s purpose. Acclaimed as a beautifully crafted debut and a perfect read for those seeking feel-good fiction, The Full Moon Coffee Shop became a cult Japanese bestseller in July 2020.
