I really enjoyed this! A cozy yet tense novella with magic, heart-warming relationships, and a lovely romance. I’m thoroughly impressed by how much this little book manages to pack in.

Short, snappy, and sweet. A great comfort read for those who like magic and/or regency romances.

This was fun especially all the gender swap of roles and expectations. Bit light and frothy, it reminded me of Sorcery and Cecilia or Mary Robinette Kowol’s Glamour series. 3.5 to 4 stars.

Snowspelled was a delightfully enchanting novella that I had so much fun reading.

The world building was great and really interesting. It's set in an alternate regency-like era in a country named Angland where women are the politicians and men have magic. There's elves, trolls, and the mention of fairies. It was so fascinating to learn about this intriguing world.

Snowspelled was really good and while I was reading it I was fully absorbed in it. But when I'd have to set it aside to tend to other things, I found that I wasn't in a rush to get back to it. That's not a bad thing, some books are just like that for me, and that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. I enjoyed Snowspelled a great deal and am very eager for the next book.
