I appreciated that it is a book with a relationship already well established between the main characters, it allowed the plot points to carry the story while also showing the love and caring between Kianthe and Reyna.
The pacing felt consistent and the puns were a lot of fun. I didn't realize at first that there might be a sequel but would like to read more about Reyna and Kianthe's adventures!
Thank you to Netgalley and Tor/Forge for the opportunity to read and review this book ahead of publication.

Enter, dragons. A pact, a theft, a mystery! Finally a little plot to sink our teeth into a an audience. I enjoyed how it bright the plot showed up a few notches and made me start caring a bit more about what was happening. I had been staying to worry the cozy vibes were all there was, and as much as it was sweet and all, I was having a hard time staying invested in just that.
Around 77% I had the realization that this story wasn't going to be fully wrapped up by the end. I was a little put out for a cliffhanger with no warning, but I'll survive. At least book 2 comes out this year!

I also love books where they open a little bookshop because it's always such fun. The magic system in this was interesting, too. I'd love to learn more about it!
