this book starts with a really intriguing concept a mysterious cafe where the owner can let you experience the life of someone youve always wanted to be sounds like a fantasy but theres a lot to think about it feels like youre really sitting in that cafe and the owner leans in and asks “wanna try being them”
we follow the main character into a life she used to dream about only to find out that its far from perfect the reality of someone elses life might be filled with conditions pain or emptiness we never expected
★★★☆☆ / 5 that said the pacing is quite slow there arent many dramatic peaks or thrilling twists and at times i wished it had a little more punch
”the life you want to be like him , he may not be happy”

Really enjoyed stories 1 and 2 but story 3 was boring to me, it took too long to get to the point. Will read the last 2 stories a bit later so Im marking this is read lol
