Such a comfortable book! I decided to listen to the audiobook before I bought the hardcover, and it truly is a treat. The author, Travis Baldree, entrances listeners with a variety of voices for each of the characters and intricate world-building details. This book is definitely YA, but I can see anyone enjoying this (there are a few curse words and a little violence if you are looking to gift this book to younger ages).

I will be doing a review of the actual writing once I read (or re-read) the hardcover version.

lighthearted slow-paced

Cozy? Sure. It was cute and filled with  whimsy. I love a found family and this definitely had some endearing characters. 

But…Oh. My. God. I. Was. So. Bored!!! This was more about opening and running a business day in, day out than high fantasy fun. Maybe if it had been shorter I’d have enjoyed it more. 

I will say though, I haven’t read food descriptors like this since Redwall, so…it has that going for it.

Delightful from the first to last page!! Clever, well-paced, comfortable, and heartfelt. I couldn't put it down--and when I had to, I kept thinking about it. Travis Baldree truly did find his "ring of fortune" with this.
