Legends & Lattes

This book was my April read for the Sword and Laser podcast. The tagline is “a novel of high fantasy and low stakes,” and never was anything more true written. The story revolves around an orc who has decided to hang up her sword and open a coffee shop. And while that's not ALL of the plot, it is the bulk of it. I found this heart-warming and delightful. The characters were so sweetly imperfect I could have read about them all day. If you need adrenaline and fast-paced action to enjoy a book, this might not be for you. As for me, I pre-ordered the sequel halfway through.
