this novella was utterly charming.
the stakes were low, the reward was high (hello mistress of the manor!), and some of the scenes struck me so intensely I know I will be thinking about them for a while to come (the sketches 😭)... I particularly loved the ostrich room (I need to know more!!), the revelation of the gardens, and the warmth of the house at the end. seriously, we need more sentient houses in fantasy. i need more.
a lighthearted, silly, and very cozy 4.75 stars, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
