Otherworldly by F.T. Lukens
4.0
“This story… has ‘star-crossed lovers’ written all over it.”
I'd like to thank Simon & Schuster for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

If you love cozy fantasy then you need to read this book! F.T. Lukens does an amazing job of creating an immersive world with vibrant characters. From the first page, I was immediately transported to a town stuck in eternal winter. The world-building and mythology of Otherworldly were also very in-depth. I loved the characters! Ellery was the perfect mix of grumpy and determined, and Knox was such a sweet and bright light! The found family vibes were also a great touch. They definitely made me smile! However, I would have enjoyed getting to learn a bit more about the side characters and other people in the town. The writing style matched the cozy plot perfectly and the pacing was evenly balanced with exciting action scenes and heartwarming sweet moments. Otherworldly is perfect for cozy fantasy readers everywhere who can’t get enough of the found family and grumpy x sunshine tropes!
