Thanks to NetGalley and Ballantine Books for the ARC.

Another one for the shelf of cozy magical realism, with brethren like Before the Coffee Gets Cold and We'll Prescribe You a Cat. Somehow, this sort of book doesn't get old for me. There's a nugget of some wider world beyond the human one, yet it remains focused on the growth of the individuals and the connections between them. It also sets up wonderfully for a sequel if the author chooses to, and I hope there will be.
