This one was a little wacky (and endearing) with a middle-aged/later in life lead.

I was not expecting the world to be contemporary. Basically, our world but fantasy species can roam around in this one special town. I was also not expecting the characters to not quite understand how to run a cafe. Despite these two surprises, the story was very sweet and heartwarming.

I do wish this was a bit longer, though. I would have loved more history of the town and the other baristas. It's certainly worth trying out if you are into cozy fantasy or would like to try the genre without committing to a full-length novel.
