Those who’ve been following me for a while know that, as much as I read also outside of my comfort genres (Fantasy and Horror), there is one thing I never read : Romance. Especially Het Romance.
A fellowship of bakers and magic caught my interest at first because it sounds like The Legends and Latte (Travis Baldree) kind of cozy fantasy and I tell myself, why not! A bit light on the character development and world building sides, but it's a cozy fantasy read so It didn't bother me that much.
I’m still not a fan of het romance but it’s pretty light in this book so it kind of worked for me. I loved the messages of tolerance, self acceptance and friendship in this book. I also like the fantasy based baking contest. It’s cozy, warm and sometimes fluffy but in a good way. Way sweater than Legends and Latte style but the same vibes. I, surprisingly, really enjoyed this book (for a non romance reader) and I definitely can see myself coming back to this universe here and there if the author decides to write others adventures or spin off based on this universe.
