YES BESTIES I now know how to properly say Kaikeyi😅😂 my patrons and I had a long discussion about how to pronounce it on sprints a week ago but none of us actually took the time to look it up (which I should have double checked but alas🫡) LOVE YALL!!!
I really liked Legends and Lattes and then only liked it more and more upon reflection. I'm so excited for it to be a trendsetter and launch a wave of cozy fantasies :3 Thimble is 🥰
I'm late to the party, but I'm so happy about your wedding rings. My own wedding set is yellow gold with a ring guard around the solitaire. I haven't seen that set up for years! Also, congratulations and happy birthday.
All I can say is that I am really really sorry about missing your last few videos but I have been helping my father in law battle with cancer and we have made the first hurdle looking forward to seeing your amazing videos love you and your amazing channel please stay safe and enjoy your reading love this video prayers and thoughts for you and your husband love your Aussie friend John ❤❤❤❤
Honestly felt the same way about Daughter of the Moon Goddess and it's so nice to have someone else have the same opinions. I've tried to read that book three times now because I want to love it but I just can't connect with the story or characters.
omg yes the bean water is for sure espresso lol i had the same thought, i also loved how they reverse engineered naming everything and all Thimble's treats!
Daughter of the moon goddess is exactly as you described with character struggles and pay offs happening too fast. However, the writing is beautiful so I think people give it a pass or more grace because of that and also since it’s a debut novel
Completely agree about daughter of the moon goddess everything was so convenient and it felt like there was so much surface level plot that I never got to know the characters
I just started Legends & Lattes yesterday. I borrowed a copy from my library but I know I'm going to wind up loving it and should have bought a copy. Loved the vlog!
Agree with you on daughter of the moon goddess. It was a dnf for me too. I ended up picking up Legends and Lattes today and am I ever glad I did. It’s so wonderful so far
I think the way that the Daughter of the Moon Goddess's plot moves very quickly and is so condensed doesn't work for people, which I get. I absolutely loved it (I read it in July I think?) and plan on reading the sequel after a reread. I don't think I realized how quickly things were happening because I was (1) only audiobooking it and (2) I had just read a similarly fast paced plot. DOTMG is marketed as Adult Fantasy which I don't 100% disagree with because of certain adult fantasy elements it carries that YA does not, but I think that it's a great transition into adult fantasy personally.
If you want something similar to Legend & Lattes, then I'd recommend Can't Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne, it's a cozy fantasy, about a runaway guard who opens book/tea shop with her partner.
Happy birthday!! I haven't read Legends and Lattes yet, but I originally put it on my TBR because it sounded like the vibes I got from Three Mages and a Margarita by Annette Marie.
Since you liked Legends and Lattes you should check out Miss Percy's Pocket Guide to The Care and Feeding of British Dragons. It is a SPFBO finalist and really good! Check it out!
OKAY THANK YOU I tried reading daughter of the moon goddess and I actually hated it?? And I felt like I was crazy because everyone loves it so much but I just didn’t 😭
Legends & Lattes will get a follow up. It’s in the same universe but I‘m not sure if there will be the same characters tho. I think Emily Fox talked about it. My goldfish brain can’t remember what she said exactly but yeah.. something along those lines 🫠🤣 Definitely something to look forward to! I have not read it yet, it’s on Scribd as an audiobook but my attention span (undiagnosed ADHD probably) isn’t made for audiobooks lol.. But I also really want to finally read it because y’all (every booktuber I love and trust) liked it so much!🥺 I’ll probably order the paperback and tell my bf: it’s Sydney’s fault.🤷🏽♀️🤣
I loved Legends and Lattes, I wish the romance wasn’t such a slow burn but looking at it from a different perspective hopefully in the next book this will grow. Although I am intrigued as to how it will continue
I don't think I've heard of Legends & Lattes until this- definitely adding it to my tbr!!! ☕🥺💗Beanwater 😂 Happy late birthdayyyyyy 🎉 Oooo hockeyyyy 😍Ahhh still haven't read Daughter of the Moon Goddess and kinda nervous to read it 😅
Legends and Lattes is such a good time read. TJ Klunes' House in the Cerulean Sea and Under the Whispering Door are also well done "cozy fantasies". I'm sure Maas will win, unfortunately. I'm sorry, but her stuff gives me Meyer's vibes. So much toxicity in the love interests and blandness in the "heroine "- so Twilight but make it Fae. Since you like action Annette Marie has several really great series. 3 Mages and a Margarita does have some of the Legends vibes plus a great found family/ friend group.
Hi! Just wanted to say you're not the only one who didn't like Daughter of the Moon Goddess. I couldn't even pass the 25% mark. Happy to know I'm not the only one😄
I feel exactly the same way about both books! Daughter of the Moon Goddess was so episodic and ultimately not worth it. :( But Legends and Lattes...I cannot wait to purchase it!
Happy Belated Birthday 🥳🎉🎂 I'm a little nervous to read Daughter of the moon goddess because you're not the 1st person to have a negative opinion of it🤷🏽♀️
Great Video Sydney and Happy Belated Birthday to you and Caleb and that’s so awesome you two were at Hossa’s retirement game it’s just stinks they didn’t win that game but I hope you both still had great birthdays 🥳😊
I was so worried you would end up hating Legends 😁I loved it... And I didn't like Daughter, I got so bored and hated thd romance trope. We buddy read it and we all didnt like it.

10:43 omg I love when this happens when reading a physical book specifically

OKAY THANK GOD

exxxxxxactly🤌🏼
I just got a copy of legends & latte, it sounds so stinking cute 🥹
Agree on both lattes and moon goddess. I liked the latter as much as I disliked the former. 🤷♀️
I just started Legends & Lattes yesterday. I borrowed a copy from my library but I know I'm going to wind up loving it and should have bought a copy. Loved the vlog!

yeah it definitely wasn't adult....maybe new adult though!!?
So glad you enjoyed Legends & Lattes! ✨ It’s just a warm hug of a book 🥰
If you want something similar to Legend & Lattes, then I'd recommend Can't Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne, it's a cozy fantasy, about a runaway guard who opens book/tea shop with her partner.
I'm readding legends and lattes to my amazon cart.xD Happy late birthday
Happy birthday!! I haven't read Legends and Lattes yet, but I originally put it on my TBR because it sounded like the vibes I got from Three Mages and a Margarita by Annette Marie.
I needed joy so I’m watching at midnight all cosy and I cannot wait 🍿
AGH i hope you enjoyed, thank you love!!🥰

OMG yesssss!!
NOTED🥰
OKAY THANK YOU I tried reading daughter of the moon goddess and I actually hated it?? And I felt like I was crazy because everyone loves it so much but I just didn’t 😭
Same! I found it awful
Legends & Lattes will get a follow up. It’s in the same universe but I‘m not sure if there will be the same characters tho. I think Emily Fox talked about it. My goldfish brain can’t remember what she said exactly but yeah.. something along those lines 🫠🤣 Definitely something to look forward to!

I will GLADLY take responsibility for you purchasing this masterpiece😂💓
I loved Legends and Lattes, I wish the romance wasn’t such a slow burn but looking at it from a different perspective hopefully in the next book this will grow. Although I am intrigued as to how it will continue
Look for a book called Bad Gods by Gaie Sebold the covers are very similar, I think you might like it
Based in a brothel rather than a coffee shop, I do think you will find it a decent read
Daughter of the moon goddess I had the fancy FairyLoot copy and nope 👎🏻 not for me, I thought it was boring tbh and sold my book off
will be asking for a copy of legends & lattes for christmas!
Happy birthday to the cutest couple ever!
Watching you make this avocado toast is so dmn satisfying!!!
I also DNF-Ed Daughter of the Moon Goddess. I totally agree on everything you said
I don't think I've heard of Legends & Lattes until this- definitely adding it to my tbr!!! ☕🥺💗Beanwater 😂
Happy late birthdayyyyyy 🎉 Oooo hockeyyyy 😍Ahhh still haven't read Daughter of the Moon Goddess and kinda nervous to read it 😅
House of Sky and Breathe has also been out a longer time than Babel so I believe that would be a big factor.
Really looking forward to legend and lattes!😊❤
damn guess i have to read babel now

Hi! Just wanted to say you're not the only one who didn't like Daughter of the Moon Goddess. I couldn't even pass the 25% mark. Happy to know I'm not the only one😄
OMG that is my daughter's boyfriend's favorite band. They went and saw them twice this year. Their name always cracks me up.
your daughter and her boyfriend sound SO COOL then!!!!! hehehe💓
Saw your title and was SO AFRAID you hated Legends and Lattes! What a relief.
mwahhahah😈
I feel exactly the same way about both books! Daughter of the Moon Goddess was so episodic and ultimately not worth it. :( But Legends and Lattes...I cannot wait to purchase it!
i was so nervous the title was about sweet baby angel legends & lattes
NEVER💓
You went to a blackhawks game...that's awesome!!
LOVE a hawks game!!!
I just wanted to clarify the pronunciation of the book Kaikeyi - it's pronounced Kai-Kay-Yee not Kai-key-ay.
Happy birthday, hope it's a great one!
I just finished reading Daughter of the Moon Goddess and it was such a task to finish. Sigh. Was very disappointed. I love the cover though.
SAME
I also dnfed daughter of the mood goddess!
if you want more viv backstory, i have on good authority that there’s a prequel coming out that focuses on viv 👀
Has there been a date set yet?
Wait, what??? I need it now haha
Happy Belated Birthday 🥳🎉🎂 I'm a little nervous to read Daughter of the moon goddess because you're not the 1st person to have a negative opinion of it🤷🏽♀️

The great fantasy adventure book by V VN Mangukiya 😊
My favourite book after Harry Potter 😊
Waiting for your review ❤❤❤
"Kai-kee-eye" is _killing_ me. 🤣-->it sounds much more like "Kai-kay-ee"
(I recommend checking out the pronunciation videos on youtube, lmao)
Kayan Kollyn ❤
