Zeppo<p>Kovasti kehuttu Legendoja ja latteja on ilmestynyt suomeksi. Varsin viihdyttävä ja sympaattinen tarina. Örkkisoturitar Viv kyllästyy tappamiseen, ripustaa miekan naulaan ja perustaa kahvilan kaupunkiin, jossa kukaan ei ole kuullutkaan kahvista. Ympärille kerääntyy vähitellen ystäväpiiri, joka koostuu erilajisista henkilöistä. Ikäviäkin asioita tapahtuu, mutta kaikesta selvitään ystävien, kahvin ja leivonnaisten avulla <a href="https://mastodontti.fi/tags/KirjaMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KirjaMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodontti.fi/tags/legendojajalatteja" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>legendojajalatteja</span></a> <a href="https://mastodontti.fi/tags/travisbaldree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>travisbaldree</span></a></p>

DapperDinobot<p>So I finished reading <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/TravisBaldree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TravisBaldree</span></a>'s cozy fantasy novel <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/BookshopsAndBonedust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BookshopsAndBonedust</span></a>. </p><p>It is quite cute. I dare say it's even better than the first one? </p><p>Though, of course, the worldbuilding is completely secondary to the needs of the plot. Like, the setting has room enough for marauding monsters and the mercenaries that hunt them to be A Thing, yet it's also stable enough to support tiny hole in the wall bookstores.</p><p>If I were feeling snarky I'd call it "Potatoes and Printing Presses."</p>

Karen Mardahl<p>Now I am starting on "Legends &amp; Lattes" by Travis Baldree. In a paper book for a change. I've heard so much about this. After only five chapters, I know this is the right book for me right now. An orc decides, after years of fighting, to settle down and open a coffee shop.</p><p>I am also reading (listening to) and appreciating "Four Hundred Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2019", edited by Ibram X. Kendi and Keisha N. Blain, but I really need some pure fiction to recharge my batteries.</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FridayRead" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FridayRead</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FredagsBog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FredagsBog</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/TravisBaldree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TravisBaldree</span></a></p>
Ali K<p>Just finished <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/BookshopsAndBonedust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BookshopsAndBonedust</span></a> and loved it! A prequel to <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/LegendsAndLattes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LegendsAndLattes</span></a>, <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/TravisBaldree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TravisBaldree</span></a> gives us another heart-warming cozy fantasy. Following Viv this time at the beginning of her career, it has a bit more action, but it’s not too much to feel out of place with the series (giving Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking vibes). I loved the new cast of quirky characters and the delicate nods to the first book peppered throughout. And the epilogue made me cry. Well done. <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bookstodon</span></a></p>
