At the Coffee Shop of Curiosities: A Novel

I’ve always seen people ask what they would consider their comfort books and I have never had a good answer. I can think of a plethora of shows or movies that I would call comfort. Now I can say I have found a comfort read.

At The Coffee Shop of Curiosities by Heather Webber is like a hug. It is the most charming story I’ve read in a long time. The characters feel like they would be friends. The small town is a place I would want to live. The coffee shop is a place I would want to be (even without matcha on the menu). The houses all sound fabulous with their ocean views, chaos, quirkiness and heart. The pets are delightful. The butterflies are magical. The supernatural mystery is intriguing. The love stories are heartwarming. This story is everything you could want that’s warm and fuzzy in the pages of a book.

A very cozy book. A dash of modern magic and character growth with real life issues. The ending did feel a bit rushed and forced but enjoyable all the same.
