OH

EWWWW

I'd give all of my socks to get Athelas to turn truly good.

Ah boo.

Ah Athelas, I feel bad for him and I also want to scold him.

I'm so nervous to start reading this XD
I binged the first series and loved it and I don't know why I'm scared to start this one, like, I know I'm going to like it? But also how could it be as awesome as the first series? Ahh

The fact that Athelas is scheming in order to see Pet's wedding is both adorable and so sad. He tries to say how much he doesn't care for her throughout the original series, but cares way way more than he wants to. 😭 I hope he gets to see it and her.

"I recognized you by your antique clothing, of course." ~Brit wiggles toes in delight~

Spent the first ten percent squealing inside, incoherently, with delight, at his internal anguish, etc *looks at kindle like it's a yawning abyss waiting to swallow me whole with another series...

“I seem to have made a small misstep.”
“Have you? Are you sure it wasn’t a deliberate kick?”

“I no longer ignore hidden youths in kitchens,” Athelas said. “I find it unwise.”
