Lives up to its reputation.
The romance is incredibly organic, zero-drama, natural friends to lovers. It’s an important part of the story but takes up almost no airtime.
A few F bombs but otherwise very PG.
Audiobook is incredibly well done.

A fun, cozy murder mystery with some wholesome romance and a dash of spice.
Two mid-thirties protagonists feeling past their prime and unsure if they should hope for more out of life. Massive, gentle warrior and tired wallflower craftswoman doomed to awkward interactions that they just can’t quite get right.

One nonbinary character, some acknowledgment that queerness exists, some sex positivity for an older character.

A strange, fascinating book. Told in a hybrid of Old English and Contemporary English, with a very constrained vocabulary. Captures the sense of a primitive, distant England.
