“I love Auri she was my favorite and I love she has her own book but wish it told more of her backstory. Did we get to know more about the "under things" not really just an idea of how it's pretty much a maze. But I still loved the writing.”

“If you like the kingkiller chronicles and have a special place for Auri. Definitely give this a read!
One of the best parts of this book is the opening notes and end notes by Patrick trying to justify the existence of this story as something for purchase.
While all of us that will forever love the character of Auri are sitting here completely satisfied with this novella where the most exciting thing that happens is the making of soap wondering what the hell he is even on about 😂
Nothing may happen and you probably shouldn't read it if you don't have context. It was great having this slice of life look into the life of a beautiful soul and I for one feel more enrichened by having it!!!”
