Ah this was fab. Cutesy, cosy fantasy with a ridiculously cheesy romance. Some of the cheesiness was almost unforgivably cringey (seriously who says 'we're all made of stardust' unironically?? And the whole 'to fly you have to jump and run the risk of falling' spiel, seriously??) and the whole thing was extremely obvious and predictable - if even I saw that twist coming then everyone must because I am really terrible at that sort of thing. But you know what? I did forgive it because all the characters were so loveable and funny (I laughed so hard at the bit with the skeleton at the end) and I was still gripped by it and it was generally so charming and heartwarming. I had a very wholesome day with my scented candle, chai latte and this book. Exactly what the doctor ordered.
