Reviewed by DesereBook provided by the author for reviewReview originally posted at Romancing the BookSome of us had our “clicks” in school and you either were apart of the one or the other kind of group. But some more than others preferred not to be apart of any one’s “click” rather than their own. This is the norm in Coffee Time at Little Angels.The book takes you through the days of seven people after they all return to their home town for the funeral of their eighth group member. Each one deals with the death of their friend in their own way and the book is not so much a story as it is a collection of narratives of the seven remaining friends.How you may ask does the title come about? Well this because of the fact that they meet for coffee at a coffee shop called, yes you guessed it, Little Angels. Now the book is overall very well written and does offer some very valuable insight into dealing with the death of a friend. And I definitely learned something from what it must feel like to loose a close personal friend, as for much of my life I have only personally dealt with the death’s of family members and beloved pets so the feeling of loosing a close friend is still something I need to face but for one who might have faced this already or like myself still needs to this book will definitely be like a type of guide for what it is like being on the “other” side.The author has definitely proven she amongst one of the great writers to come out of South Africa and I can tell only more good things are in store for us the readers.
