In book one "Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Fairies, Emily is socially inept, constantly struggling with social interactions and preferring the company of her dog Shadow, to that of humans. While her colleague Bambleby is the complete opposite, winning others over at a glance and constantly seeking out the companionship of others. Well, without giving too much away, let's just say, Emily and Bambleby had to work together, to defeat a semi-evil Fae. Bambleby helped coax Emily out of her solitary lifestyle, all while helping her find "new found family" and love along the way.

Well, without giving too much away, let's just say, Emily and Bambleby had to work together, to defeat a semi-evil Fae. Bambleby helped coax Emily out of her solitary lifestyle, all while helping her find "new found family" and love along the way.

In this second book in the series, Emily has published her Encyclopedia, been granted her tenure at Cambridge, is enjoying her new found love with Bambleby and still thinking on his proposal. She is also working on her Map of the Otherlands now, to go with her Encyclopedia. All is well, until, Bambleby's stepmother, sends assassins to kill him, forcing Emily and Bambleby to go in search of a doorway, into his Fairy Kingdom. And of course, Emily, being Emily, wants to continue working on her Map while on this quest as well.

We are introduced to some new characters as well. A colleague of Emily's, a curator at Cambridge named Rose and Emily's niece, Ariadne, who aspires of becoming and Dryadologists herself. Both join Emily and Bambleby on their quest, although they are not exactly welcomed on this venture, I particularly enjoyed the parts where Poe rejoined us on this journey. Poe being one of my favorite characters in the book. (Poe gives me Dobby vibes) I absolutely adore him.

Once again, we encounter more dangerous Fae, one very dangerous half Fae (Bambleby's mom), more magic, and we get a little more romance in this second book.

This was such a cozy, comfort read for me, although I'm not quite sure it's meant to be.
I found it absolutely delightful.

As much as I enjoyed the first book, I found this second installment to be even more enjoyable. The author has masterfully crafted a world that feels both familiar and fantastical, drawing you deeper into its enchanting embrace.

It really is hard to do a review, and not give too much away, especially when the book has not even been released yet. Which, by they way, this book will be released in January 16, 2024.
But if you enjoyed Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Fairies, you will be sure to enjoy this book as well.

I ordered this, expecting a brand new book. Instead, I got a secondhand copy. I'm unhappy.
