While I did really enjoy this story and definitely think it fits the category of Cosy Fantasy, I found myself wishing for a bit more 'why' as to who Wallace had been and more of a journey to who he becomes, it felt quite quick. I also agreed with someone else that the ending was what we wanted but maybe not what we needed.
However, reading this book was incredibly soothing and comfortable, even as it dealt with painful situations. It has a real gentleness in how it handles the tough stuff.
