This book is like a warm hug on a cold day. I can't recommend it enough

I also liked this book. As an aside, you might like "A Psalm for the Wild Built". It's VERY similar in vibe, not fantasy though. Hard to say sci-fi as it doesn't feel super futuristic other than sentient robots that have disappeared.

I'll leave it there but it was the same relaxed vibes of L&L.

What's the age range suitability? Got my youngin into D&D, just need books

[–] Bougie_Birdie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Hmm, I'd probably call it PG13.

The prologue has some fantasy violence / gore, and the main side plot is lesbian romance. Some sexual tension, and I think a fade to black, but I don't remember anything explicit.

I don't know if this would bother you, but the language was like fantasy blue-collar. The protaganist is an orc and curses a lot, but I feel they were fantasy swear words and I don't remember seeing any F-bombs

The book's main appeal is this wholesome, cozy vibe though. Even if some of the elements are for adults, it's got good morals and a heartwarming message

Edit: after reading the synopsis I think this is just too wholesome for me to poke fun at. Added to reading list.
