If I have said it once, I will say it again. This series is a warm hug to my soul.
This book in particular may be my favorite yet - but honestly I have absolutely loved anything by
@sarahbethdurst and it feels like an impossible ask to make me choose.
There is so much beauty in her writing and the fantasy world she has created with this series. One that I could jump into.
This book hit close to home, about chasing joy and the beauty that comes with the quiet kind of love.
I love Marin for her strength, Dax for his ability to see the magic in everything around him, Ree's determination to follow his own path even if it's scary, and Perri...I just wish I had my own Perri. Or one of the winged cats, I would happily take that too.
I have never been more excited to have been approved for an ARC because it means I get the honor of diving into The Magical Cheese Emporium right away and see what else is in store for these islands and what familiar faces we might get to see!
