A review by befsk
The 24-Hour Café by Libby Page

4.0

I did worry the book was going to center entirely on Hannah and Mona over the 24 hour period but we do transition seamlessly between them and the customers of the café, which is nice. This is an emotional read at times, especially when exploring the friendship between Hannah and Mona, and the sometimes tragic stories of the customers. The book is comforting and every time I thought about opening it up to read it gave me a warm feeling.

I loved the plot of the café work as a small, restrictive window into other people's stories, and the fact that none of the customers truly see into the waitresses lives either.

A beautiful book about friendship and platonic love and how it's just as potent and affecting as romantic love.

I received this ARC through Netgalley.
