A wonderful mix of magical realism, feminism, and the sweet magic I miss from Pushing Daisies.

Adorable and silly. A lovely palate cleanser without any real heft.

It was a mystery without any suspense. It was a romance without any tension. It was just all either really predictable or questions would resolve the page after they’re asked.

I was skeptical of this cozy, but if someone had told me it was the cozy lighthearted version of Promising Young Woman I would have snapped it up right away.
