Found family, quests, and long days spent in a bookstore-- this book was a perfect cozy fantasy read. The loveable characters kept me invested in their relationships and growth. Viv is a wayward character finding family and community and learning life is more than her mercenary work. The lesson that goodbyes are part of growth, goodbyes aren't necessarily forever, and that sometimes we meet good people at the wrong time hit home as someone who moves to new places constantly. I love how this set up Legends and Lattes and gave us a backstory into Viv's life and where her dreams and growth started.
Graphic: Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Violence and Cursing
Minor: Alcohol and Police brutality

This book is so DELICIOUSLY COZY that it CURED my common cold—or at the very least it warmed me all the way up, gave me a kiss on the forehead, and made me feel a whole lot better! Wounded in her first venture as a mercenary, a young Viv washes up in a seaside town with a ramshackle bookshop and ends up finding fiction, friendship, first love, the mutually enriching relationship between small businesses and their community, and a little badass bone-busting adventure along the way! It’s hard to believe, but I loved Bookshops & Bonedust even more than Legends & Lattes and literally hugged this book when I finished it.
