Oh this was so lovely! It definitely gave me House in the Cerulean Sea vibes, but with witches instead. Always love a good found family trope, and it's strong in this book. Mika thinks she can go on living her life without any connection or relationships, but the little family at the Nowhere House shows her that's not true. 

The characters were absolutely the best part about this book, but the magic and the magic system was also so interesting. Plus, the sunshine witch falls in love with a grumpy librarian? Sign me up.

If you're looking for a cozy fantasy featuring found family to read as the weather gets colder, I definitely recommend this one!

Loved the diversity. The twist at the end was a little predictable. I loved the found family trope so +0.5 stars for that

Very predictable twists and plot, but very cute! The humor is nothing to applaud, and the messages were force fed down your throat. But it was cozy and cute.

What an absolutely delightful book! I loved this book - it was sweet and thoughtful and full of the types of quotes you want to put on your bathroom mirror. The eclectic cast of characters were so well written and I instantly fell in love with everyone living at Nowhere House. The story was was well done, with a few little twists and turns to keep me engaged. It made me laugh out loud at parts I love a good found family story, and this one was so cozy and lovely. This is the type book that makes you want to curl up with a cup of tea. I would definitely read it again and would highly recommend it.
