I'm absolutely obsessed with everything about this book and the main couple's dynamic. This first volume is going to probably be my new favorite comfort reread because despite bad things happening to them, they are just so SOLID as a couple immediately. They are like an old married couple and are so strongly devoted to each other. The back third of the book is basically a farming arc where you get to see them just enjoy each other and scheme to get things done. I cannot wait to buy the next one and I am SO sad I missed the preorder.
