A very sweet and cozy story! This had lovely characters, charming magic, and with anything British, so... MUCH... TEA. This book is predominantly about the vibes and the comfort. There are stakes laid out for plot, but at no point did I feel truly worried or unsure of what was going to happen.
Also, and without looking up any press that may have covered this with the author... Mandanna 100% wrote Ian McKellen as one of these characters, right? 🤣
