🥿 Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

After being orphaned, Creel is given to a dragon, but soon strikes a deal to win her freedom and a pair of blue slippers. On her journey to the King’s Seat, where she hopes to open up a dress shop, she starts to realize that the shoes are more than they seem.

This book was adventurous, it was entertaining, it had a great cast of characters (plus dragons)! Creel is up there with Cimorene (from Dealing with Dragons) in my “Dragon Book Heroine Wall of Fame”. She’s very resourceful, courageous, and relatable as she really just wants to sew and embroider but gets tangled up in something way over her head. I also really adored her friendship with Prince Luka.

The ending was climatic and lead into the possibility of a second book (which there is) and I’m overjoyed.

Tuesdays at the Castle

By Jessica Day George

I had to remake the case twice before I finally got the measurements right. But I’m glad I finished it in time for the holidays. That was a close one for sure 😮‍💨.

It’s your standard square backed bradel bind. The entire case was foiled by hand using a foil quill.

has anyone read the Dragon Slippers trilogy by Jessica Day George because I fucking love it

Unnecessarily specific sewing that is plot relevant to the extent it feels like a fanfic au where the author handmakes fancy clothes for a living

beautiful character relationships and a protagonist you can root for

fun ways to think about dragons and every one is unique and distinct

romance, action, sewing, intrigue and mystery and a showstopping end to every book and it has DRAGONS im sorry what else did you want

Hey! If you had to pick one book character (and only one) to marry for the rest of your life, which one would you choose?
