What a cute and cozy read, perfect for fall! I enjoyed reading this book. The ensemble of characters all rounded each other out quite nicely. I found the books themes around home, found family, and identity to be well done. I also loved Mika’s distinction between nice and kind- something that really resonated with me. The romance in this story is the B plot so readers should go in expecting a solid fiction novel rather than a romance. I would recommend this book to fans of cozy witchy reads.
