This book was such a wonderful time and I cannot wait to read the next in the series! I would almost describe this as the middle-aged character equivalent of cozy, fantasy, young adult books. It reminded me so much of reading the fantasy books I used to read as a kid, just, a bit more adult with older characters, more mature opinions and perspectives, and some good cursing. I also really enjoyed that this book wasn't too long and didn't drag anywhere, so it felt like an easy and comfortable read. The writing style was lovely and easy to follow, I loved all of the diverse magical creature characters, and I loved getting to finally see a middle-aged woman as the female lead. I would easily reread this book just for an easy fantasy read.
I can't wait to see where this story goes in the rest of the series!
