E-ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for a fair review.
I read Legends & Lattes over the winter and adored it. So when the prequel became available in ARC form, how could I say no?! We follow a much younger Viv who has to convalescence in a sleepy seaside town following an injury. She finds friendship with the local bookseller and, as expected, chaos ensues.
- I loved seeing younger Viv who is fiesty and impatient and, even in the short period of time this book covers, watching her grow and learn.
- The side characters are all so fun and well suited to the setting. The town of Murk was so vivid in my mind and I love how Baldree has created this amazing setting. Also Potroast the Gryphet was so cute!
- This book is cosy but poignant. I love how the books Viv is given to read become more relevant and the last one... My heart! I wish these books were.real and I could read them.
A very worthy prequel. If you loved Legends & Lattes, you'll love this too.
