And this week I finished the Lutesong Series by R.K. Ashwick!

A bard accidentally gets his lute posessed by a forest spirit and they play music together and go on adventures! It's adorable and I fully recommend it for anyone who likes a bit of a cozy adventure and loves music! 💚🪕
The cover for The stray Spirit, Book one of the series. It shows an orange lute on a black and blue background The cover for The Spirit well, Book two of the series. It shows a yellow lute on a black and red background with diamonds The cover for The Spirit's curse, Book three of the series. It shows a pink lute on a black and green background with purple leaves
