If you’re looking for something like Legends and Lattes this is it! A cozy and sapphic fantasy about queen’s guard Reyna and mage of ages, Kianthe, as they run away together to open a tea and bookshop. I think almost every reader I know dreams about leaving their day jobs to open a cozy bookshop. I wouldn’t say this is as low stakes as Legends and Lattes, and some of the conflicts are unresolved but I think this is to set up for more books in the series. I did get very invested in all of the characters, and even the side characters. They were all well thought out and very likeable. The narrator does a great job distinguishing the two FMCS and uses various accents throughout. The audiobook includes what I think a hint at the next book in the epilogue and a prequel chapter which I really enjoyed. Overall this is a fun read, I just wish some more of the conflicts were resolved. Thanks to NetGalley, Rebecca Thorne and Macmillan Audio for this ALC.
