Maybe it's unfair for me to rate this since I only read it to complete a prompt for a reading challenge, but whatever. Cozy fantasy has missed for me once again. This one wasn't bad, it was just boring. Penny was one of the most nothing characters I've ever read. The world was conceptually interesting, but it didn't have enough substance to make me care. Every question could be waved away with mystical dream logic. There really wasn't much of a plot, and the conclusions the story drew drew were fine.
