Ich kenne die Autorin nicht, ich habe noch nie ein Buch von ihr gelesen und da ich keine Klappentexte lese, wusste ich nicht, was genau ich da gekauft habe. Ich habe ein absolutes Cozy Buch gekauft! 😍 Es war einfach nur soo schön. Die Protagonisten waren total niedlich und sympathisch, die Welt zauberhaft.. Und nachdem die kleinen Drachen dazugekommen sind??! 🥹 Man kann natürlich keine pure Spannung erwarten, aber ich habe es sehr gemocht. 😊 Wenn ich gewusst hätte, was für ein Cozy Buch es ist, würde ich es mir für den Herbst aufsparen.
Loved it!!! It was even cozier and more fantasy then the first book. Little less angsty, but still enough sad parts that are overcome, to not feel annoyingly sweet. I practically smiled the whole time while reading.
