Description
The Matcha Maker Café is a sweet, small-town slow-burn romance set in a charming matcha cafe, perfect for readers who love Laurie Gilmore, B.K. Borison and the gentle magic of Before the Coffee Gets Cold.
At Matcha Moments, owner Sasha Lee is a star matchmaker, helping customers find love over a smooth cup of matcha. You'd think that as the master she'd be living her fairytale ending, but Sasha is allergic to commitment.
With a growing reputation, her successes are challenged when the 'unmatchable' Ben walks in - a man who believes he's too boring for love. As Sasha tries to match him, she slowly finds herself drawn to his quiet charm.
As their daily banter becomes the highlight of her day, Sasha must confront the possibility that her own love story might be brewing. Will she embrace the unexpected romance, or let her past fears keep her from true love?

The Matcha Maker Café
Thanks to Pan Macmillan for this e-arc! I really wanted this book to be my next favorite small town romance with a little paranormal aspect, but it sadly could not catch me at all. I did like the setting of it, with a cute café in a small town as the backdrop of the story and lots of side characters that were really adorable at times. But I found the third person POV to not be a good fit for this type of book, the inner monologue of our main character Sasha really confusing and at times irritating. Her psychic abilites felt misplaced in this otherwise very normal everyday life kind of story. The writing style was my biggest issue. It was all over the place, a lot of telling instead of showing when it comes to the characters emotions and inner turmoils, really repetitive and juvenile. Since this is a debut novel, I hope to see some improved work from the author in the future, because the potential is definitely there!
Nette Romance für zwischendurch
Ich dachte wirklich, dass dieses Buch mein nächster Lieblings-Kleinstadtroman mit einem kleinen paranormalen Aspekt wird, aber leider konnte es mich nicht fesseln. Das Setting hat mir gefallen: ein süßes Café in einer Kleinstadt als Hintergrund der Geschichte und viele Nebenfiguren, die stellenweise wirklich liebenswert waren. Der innere Monolog unserer Hauptfigur Sasha war für mich sehr verwirrend und teilweise sogar nervig. Ihre übersinnlichen Fähigkeiten wirkten in dieser ansonsten sehr alltäglichen Geschichte fehl am Platz. Das Buchcover wirkt interessanter als die Geschichte selbst.
