*Sigh* When a book is marketed as "HP" meets "Gilmore Girls" and cozy small town magical vibes, you go in expecting a low stakes, cozy magical fantasy without stress. This was the biggest click-bait book I have EVER read. You have a main character that suffers from severe trauma and anxiety, multiple traumatic scenes, an emotionally abusive husband, trashy small town people, and a multitude of other problems.
Maybe I am generous giving it a 3 stars; however, the plot did pick up somewhere around the 2/3rds mark and I was determined to finish this for a buddy read.
What I expected - cozy. What I got - trauma, a shit ton of trauma Debra!
