An entertaining read

Interesting character in a historical drama with plenty of plot (and slow burn romance perhaps.) The art is so pretty and I quite enjoyed the main character’s wit and quirky behavior. Definitely would recommend The Apothecary Diaries. I liked it so much I bought the 12 volumes out so far :)
