Hi friends! So today I'm going to be doing a review on "Legends & Lattes" by Travis Baldree. This review is going to be short and sweet (like the title suggests) and spoiler free (however there will be the Goodreads synopsis in this and sometimes it can contain spoilers so please keep that in mind!)
"High fantasy, low stakes - with a double shot of coffee.
After decades of adventuring, Viv the orc barbarian is finally hanging up her sword for good. Now she sets her sights on a new dream - for she plans to open the first coffee shop in the city of Thune. Even though no one there knows what coffee actually is.
If Viv wants to put the past behind her, she can't go it alone. And help might arrive from unexpected quarters. Yet old rivals and new stand in the way of success. And Thune's shady underbelly could make it all too easy for Viv to take up the blade once more.
But the true reward of the unchartered path is the travellers you meet along the way. Whether bound by ancient magic, delicious pastries or a freshly brewed cup, they may become something deeper than Viv could have imagined.
Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree is a cosy, heartwarming slice - of - life fantasy about found families and fresh starts - perfect for fans of TJ Klune, Katherine Addison and T.Kingfisher."
So the reason I wanted to read "Legends & Lattes" was because I wanted to take a little break from ARC reading and wanted something cute and cosy to just relax with when reading at the end of the night. Friends, I couldn't of picked a more perfect book. This book was honestly one of the cutest, cosiest stories I have read in a long time. It was nice to spend time in a world and not all of the story be full of action and disaster. Getting to spend the end of the nights with this book on my kindle, my heated blanket and a cup of tea was such a vibe. Especially considering how cold these last few nights have been. There was such a perfect representation of found family within this book and how even with your found family you can have your ups and downs. I was so emotionally invested in these characters and the author did such a good job and making sure I felt exactly what these characters were feeling. I would honestly recommend this to anyone who loves cosy fantasy, even if you don't, please give this book a read I will 100% be picking up a physical copy as well as "Bookshops & Bonedust" next time I'm in my local Waterstones.
I have this book a 5/5 star rating on Goodreads!
