Sangu Mandanna

Started reading this around dinnertime, which was a mistake, because then I couldn't put it down and--well, you know how it goes--next thing I know, it was midnight and I'd read the whole thing. Such a delightful story.

This book sets out to be a cozy, feels-good read and accomplishes that brilliantly. The cast of characters are diverse and completely lovable, the magical aspects are lovely, and the "grumpy-and-sunshine" romance warms my heart. Love this book as a comfort read.

Delightfully cozy, with sparkling dialogue.

This is the witchy, kooky cousin of “The House in the Cerulean Sea” and I ended up loving every bit of it. :,) It’s a great blend of cozy, magical, and just a little spice.
