Reviews with content warning for Fire/Fire injury - Legends & Lattes

I loved this soooo much. It's so cozy and the characters so lovable. I would die for Thimble. There's a cuddly, protective direcat. It's subtly sapphic. I need more!

cute and frothy in a pleasing sort of way. I don't know what sort of wiring I possess to so thoroughly enjoy reading Building Compilations as a narrative but it really works for me in this story; perhaps Baldree just has a knack for tapping into the satisfaction of creating something out of the ruins of what it was before - it's a trait that he imbues into the workers of Legends and Lattes too.

I have qualms though. viv's arc didn't really seem to move? it just got reiterated a lot. the rest of the cast slot into their respective allyship with her very easily. too easily... I wish more had been made of their dynamics with each other and as a group, because I loved them all a lot (Thimble the most, of course)

The perfect cozy first read of the year. I'm willing to hand-wave a few logical inconsistencies regarding the Madrigal subplot - and the somewhat silly choice of using the terms 'latte' and 'barista', but tiptoeing around others like 'biscotti' and 'chocolate croissant' - to enjoy the lower stakes, found family fantasy vibes. Breezy to read and easy to love, with very charming and memorable characters. Reading this made me crave some fresh baked pastries.
