Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree
5.0

What if the life you've always lived started to feel... itchy?

Oh, how I loved this one! Bookseller Fern (of Bookshops and Bonedust) is a delight, and very relatable, as she searches for the missing piece in her supposedly wonderful life. 

What starts as an accidental adventure becomes more purposeful, and dangerous, when she and bounty hunter Astryx road trip to deliver a bounty. 

I adored watching this opposites attract friendship develop throughout. In an added bonus, the adorable goblin Zyll, the bounty in question, steals every single scene she is in. She is my favorite forever. 

Though slightly less cozy than his previous books, Baldree adds just the right amount of battles, danger, demon chickens, and talking swords to a charming story of friendship and finding happiness in life. I loved every moment of Fern's journey, and the ending is ::chef’s kiss::.
