I knew going in I would enjoy this, but I've still come away pleasantly surprised.
The isolated setting was cold and blustery and absolutely to my tastes; the asexual, aromantic vibes for most of the story coupled with the Veronica Speedwell-like narration was so unique and engaging; the unexpected meanderings of both the plot and Emily's mind kept me on my toes; and the little dalliances into Wendell's POV made me sigh fondly on more than one occasion; altogether, it made for such a fun and cozy read!
I really cannot wait to pick up the next one.
