Review:
Minor Works of Meda is a fantasy book in which we follow the journey of Meda & Kalcedon and them attempting to fix the ward-spell faltering before their world is gone due to cruel faes. We get to know Meda as a witch and one who is clever but does not have the required power to achieve her dreams. However, her companion and rival, Kalcedon, has all the power she could ever wish but no desire to hone it and learn powerful skills.
We follow their journey and we get to know Meda more. Meda is a neurodivergent FMC who is a mixture of grumpy x sunshine. Kalcedon is also grumpy as well. This is one of my favourite trope (grumpy/sunshine x grumpy). Throughout the book, I could 100% relate to Meda and found myself thinking things like "I do that too Meda!!". I honestly loved getting to know Meda and thought that she was ambitious and never gave up on her goal. Kalcedon, on the other hand, is grumpy and is meant to be her rival. However, you can tell that he feels for Meda and she doesnt quite realise it (Come on MEDA!! He clearly has feelings for you).
Minor Works of Meda is a journey and a story in which we see character development and watch the characters begin to learn to trust themselves and learn how to find love & friendship in a world that has cast them away and labelled them as "different". We come to love Meda & Kalcedon and come to understand the world from their view.
While I do label this book as cozy fantasy, it is filled with adventures and we go through many plot twists throughout the book and reach a satisfying ending. I would have loved to learn a bit more about the world that Minor Work of Meda is based in but most of my questions were answered by the end of the book.
Thank you to the author for allowing me to beta read this book in exchange for my honest opinion and reviews.
