This title reminded me of Emily Wilde, The Midnight Bargain, and a bit of the Parasol Protectorate.
I loved the authentic memoir tone, the way characters treated dragons through the lens of biology as a species to be studied, and the periodic illustrations throughout. My only criticism is that the meandering pace speeds up jarringly in the last few chapters. And I will 100% continue this series!
