This is such a great cozy fantasy! I loved the characterization of the main crew - Kiela, Caz, and Larran. Right from the get-go, these characters grabbed me. I listened to the audiobook, so the pace for me seemed slow as compared to reading a paperback/ebook version. I did appreciate that the conflicts that arose were more realistic and funny moments than a "war is coming we're all going to die" vibe. Larran is definitely my favorite - he is just a big teddy bear willing to help anyone in need (cinnamon roll trope to the extreme but I love him!) The plot is cute and the supporting cast made me laugh. The Spellshop is a fun read if you're looking for something light-hearted. I definitely enjoyed!
