     "Happy People Read and Drink Coffee" isn't a story about books and coffee - it's only a background of the story. And for sure this is not a story about pure happiness. "Happy People Read and Drink Coffee" is a bittersweet story about the life.
      
     One day can change everything. One moment can take everything away from you: love, happiness, faith, hope, future. That one second is just a test to check us - are we strong enough to be alive after most tragic things?

    Diane is a young woman who has everything: husband and daughter who she loves, an amazing job, a perfect life. But one day everything is changing and her life isn't perfect and happy anymore, her life is a true nightmare. Her husband and daughter are dying in a car accident and she's losing everything, even reason to be alive. She's like a ghost, spending long days and nights at home surrounded with memories and dark thoughts. 
    One year after her tragedy, she moves to a small town on the Irish coast, determined to rebuild her life alone. Loneliness, unknown country, an amazing view from the small cottage which she is renting... and Edward, her neighbor, who treats Diane as the enemy.
   Weeks are passing, moods and thoughts are changing, memories are still alive in her head. But not only Diane is changing. Her relations with Edward becoming something else than two neighbors...

   Will she start a new life? Will she find her place and happiness? And what with she and Edward - is it love, friendship or maybe nothing worth neighbor relation
