This instalment was a lot more political than I expected of a cozy fantasy so it was a slow start for me and even considered dnf-ing at 25% however I decided to at least give it a couple more chapters and I got hooked and finished the rest in a single sitting. I have to admit that I mostly skimmed the political bits though... still, I just love the idea of a Tea Spirit and Yorani is absolutely adorable.
