This was such a cute cozy fantasy! I loved it so much!
This was really comfy vibes, very low stakes, and super adorable. I just loved going along for the ride.
Vivian was such a strong main character. She knew what she wanted and she was going to do whatever she needed to do to get it done.
I'm also a sucker for found family troupes and this book has one of the best examples of it which I hadn't seen people talking about when they were recommending it. But the group that forms here is so sweet. They all support each other and take each other as they are unconditionally.
The sapphic romance wasn't as prevalent as I thought it was going to be. It was only barely brought up, but it was still really cute to see them grow closer.
I do wish there had been a little bit more world building at the beginning to set us up for a world filled with beings who are not humanoid and I also don't know how much time has passed throughout this book in general either. But neither of those things bothered me enough while listening to the story to feel like I needed to lower the rating.
I would definitely recommend this book for anyone looking for a fast, low-stakes, cozy fantasy book and I can definitely agree with the hype.
