Pickpick

This one was a soft pick for me. It had a lot of the right ingredients and I did enjoy it, but it still somehow felt flat. I love the concept of cozy fantasy, but like any other book, you need a sensible conflict/resolution to go with pleasant characters and an intriguing setting. This book tried to have an absolutely gigantic political upheaval in the background, but this either needed to not exist or be a bigger part of the story. I found it ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont\'d) hard to believe that everyone was so ambivalent towards the fact that the entire government had been completely overthrown. There were a lot of fun moments and some really fun critters, but while I liked reading this, I wouldn\'t ever pick it up for a reread. 14h
