This was just as fun and whimsical as the first book. I loved that we got to explore more of this world (would still like to see more and go further in depth) and I enjoyed getting to learn more about the FMC that was mentioned in the first book.
This cozy fantasy was a beautifully written story that follows Terlu Perna (who, if you read “The Spellshop” is the librarian who created Caz, the sentient spider plant). While this is a stand alone novel, there are nods to “The Spellshop” that are subtle but made me quite happy because this world that is created for these stories is one that I can throw myself into and get lost, in a good way.
The Enchanted Greenhouse starts with Terlu awakening from her recent punishment (not deserved) of being turned into a statue because of her use of “illegal” magic. She awakens on a seemingly deserted island filled with empty greenhouses and soon stumbles upon a grumpy gardener, Yarrow, who is tending to the grounds. While the two get acquainted with each other they have some interesting adventures along the way that include a spunky flying cat, talking plants, mythical creatures, and magic. Along the way we also see the very slow-burn romance form that we all know was inevitable.
4.25 stars is my rating for this book, and the reasoning is because “The Spellshop” was a solid 5 stars and I feel like while this was a great read, it isn’t on the same rating level as it’s companion novel. This is a great book to escape into if you are a fan of cozy fantasy with a side of romance. “The Enchanted Greenhouse” Will give you all the warm fuzzies, bring random smiles to your face and leave you wanting more stories from this magical world.
Thank you NetGalley and Sarah Beth Durst for the opportunity to review this beautiful story that I received as an ALC.
