3.0

This story is, I feel, the epitome of "cozy". Nothing too shocking happens, and the story is not sophisticated or deep; it kind of feels like a children's book in some ways (and honestly I've read children's books that were more elaborate). But the characters are likeable and relatable, the plot is sensible, and overall it was an enjoyable read. It hits the spot if you're looking for something simple and light, as I was.
