A fiery restaurant owner falls for her enigmatic head chef in this charming, emotional romance. …
A really enjoyable book. It's not high art, sure, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable read, and while we might be inclined to make assumptions just based on the romance genre and the publisher, I still felt that the plot was uncertain and surprising.
@jmccyoung thank you! I haven't fully back-filled my bookwyrm, but I read The House In The Cerulean Sea a few months ago. I enjoyed it, though I felt it skewed just a little more YA than Very Secret Society did. I think TJ Klune had just come off of writing a series of YA novels, so this would track..
The follow-up(?) to House, Under The Whispering Door (which btw contains an easter egg referencing House) is also very excellent in a similar vein, but a little more grown up as well. The themes in Under The Whispering Door had me absolutely sobbing, though.

Themes of loss, grief, and sacrifice, with a pretty telegraphed twist.
Following directly on from the first book, it's easy to see that the overall plot follows many of the same beats as So You Want To Be A Wizard, though differing a lot in the details.
I enjoyed the read but it didn't feel as ground breaking as #1. Still, excited to move on to #3!

I read these books a long time ago, when I was young. I'm excited to read the "revised and expanded" editions, as well as the 7 new (to me) books in the series, and the three spinoff Cat Wizards books...

This is one of the few books I've read that makes me long so powerfully to live in its world (let's be honest, to be the main character.)
The story is warm and loving, the writing lively and interesting. I already miss reading this book, and I wish I could have never left.

I enjoyed a return to the locked tomb, though I found this telling almost willfully byzantine. Still, we're potentially poised for a really fascinating fourth book (conclusion?)
