Knowing this is a prequel, it was hard to read about a certain relationship knowing how it would all end up, but the epilogue brought on warm fuzzy hope-for-the-future feelings with this. I personally loved the first book more but this was just as enjoyable and inspiring and would highly recommend.

I actually think I liked this one MORE than legends and lattes, somehow. It’s hard to out my finger on but this book flowed so well. There were no slow and arduous sections where it felt like nothing was happening. (The beginning of legends and lattes was a bit slow.)
Overall a very satisfying read and made me feel very warm. I can’t think of how it could be better at all so high marks for sure.

This was oh so adorable and cozy, but a bit more brash than Legends and Lattes (than I remember! I don’t remember this much cursing in L&L!)
I loved Viv’s journey of becoming a reader & reading outside of her *usual* genre! It was so fun to read about the organizing of the bookshop & the epilogue / ending letter made me smile 🥰
