Episode 25 is about cosy fantasy novel Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree. Join Silke on a discussion of this book about an orc who starts a coffee shop in a medieval town. It's fun, it's lighthearted, and it's all about coffee (and friendship, also friendship). All podcast links: linktr.ee/justanotherbookishpodcast Spoilers for the entire book ahead. This will be more interesting if you've read it, and I do leave out lots of details. This podcast is in no way meant as a replacement for the books I discuss on it.
