    I actually just finished rereading the entire sets of series that takes place in this universe. I love a good story and this author never fails to deliver. The characters are unique and the way they are highlighted in the different series is so satisfying. I am looking forward to the various "next adventures" of these evolving characters. Enjoyable but definitely not light weight

    I sort of got tired of writing how much I enjoy Meghan Diana Douches writing, but it's true. There are 3 I have not read, and eventually I will get to them, but for now I have a new one just released this week.

    I enjoyed this collection and now want to go back and re-read everything in order. Thank you for sharing your world.

    I loved all the stories about Kandy, but my favorite Moments short story was “Momentary Misunderstanding – Burgundy” where it is implied there are lots and lots of dimensions. I loved the vulnerability and self-doubt of Burgundy and her growing confidence in her healing abilities. I loved the glimpse she saw of herself through admiring eyes where she began to realize she is beautiful, too. I enjoyed Feo’s exuberance, the hints of an Asgardian type dimension… I want to see what happens next for Burgundy. I would love to see a Burgundy trilogy that goes a bit backwards in time from this point (the box, the focal point storage, her learning and casting that first circle) and going forward with her and Feo.

    *hopeful look*

    A love letter from MCD to her fans. If you love the characters of the Adept universe, this will be like a warm hug at a family reunion. If you're new to this world, this is a mere sample of delights to come! Thanks, Ms. Doidge!

    Meghan Diana Dodge has written some short stories that give a better understanding of some of the characters in her books. I appreciated the stories about Kandy, they explained a lot about her snarky behavior. I especially liked the story with Burgundy and hope that will eventually be given a storyline. Overall it was a great read.

    It is always a pleasure to drop into the world of the Adept that MCD has created. This a beautiful collection of some short stories that explain the background on some of the characters a bit better. The characters in this universe are well crafted and well rounded. I eagerly await each new book and this was no exception.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Reminiscing.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 30, 2022
    To say I'm happy this book was out together is an understatement.

    I remember reading these short stories on Meghan's blog, hoping we'd get them as they now are.

    Perfectly put together, showing slices of life between the main books.

    But, At Just the Right Moment, still had me near too tears. The heartbreak those children went through, evil.

    I think this book is a must if you've read all the Adept ones 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 it fills in a few of the blanks 💖💖💖
