Cozy fantasy is my jam, and this book was fabulous! The perfect combination of low stakes but also drama that was stressful enough to keep my furiously reading.  The coziest setting on a small island with amazing townsfolk turned friend and the loveliest bits of magic.  Magic to make plants grow and berries ripen quickly so that the MC Kiela can make jam and sell it? From a cozy cottage she grew up in? Yes please! The found family / small village vibes were immaculate because the writing was so wonderful.  And the romance... adorable and filled with hope and no angst.  And TONS of magic creates and companions!  A fantasy book you would actually want to fall into. All around a super cozy fantasy that lovers of this subgenre are sure to adore!

Note: I listened to the audiobook and it's absolutely the way to go!
