Definitely a cozy read! I really enjoyed this book and the world it created it my head. The main characters are lovable and ready for adventure. 
My only wish was that the dragon egg plot was more prominent in this book instead of just a side plot leading into the next book.

The writing style heavily gives - written by a man for man. How many times can you write the word “breast” in one chapter. 
The TV series is better.
