This book is a cozy hug! Eve‘s journey through a surprise pregnancy, discovering herself & friends-to-lovers romance is predictable but perfect. The warmth, charm and heartfelt moments shine. There‘s also a found family vibe here. The audiobook was fantastic, bringing these lovable characters to life. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ❤️📚

#VacationReading—the book I read (mostly on the plane)& the book I bought while in Key West! My husband and friends were nice enough to make the trek to both bookstores & I couldn‘t resist a signed book(& tote)! As for my November #BOTM pick, this found family fantasy made me feel nostalgic, would be great to read out loud to a younger reader & could‘ve used a map! I appreciated the thorough ending that tied up literally everything! Strong debut!

This one was so good I had to buy a paperback when I forgot my BOTM copy at work on Friday! I liked all of the characters and the ending was cool, but I do think the twist of Tao‘s vision (all I can say without spoiling) went a touch dark for a cozy fantasy.

#NetGalley #ARC #MountARC

Pub Day was 05 November

Tao travels the country in a mule-drawn wagon and tells fortunes. She is a teller of small fortunes, larger fortunes come with consequences and so she sticks to the small ones. On her journey she makes friends with a former mercenary and a reformed thief, who are looking for a lost child, as well as an apprentice baker and her slightly magical cat.

The story is like being on a low stakes ⬇️

julesG D&D campaign. Four heroes travelling together on the quest to find the small girl that was lost. On the way they are telling each other their stories, they talk about the small and big things in life (love, culture, roots,...) and try to be better every day.

I truly enjoyed this story and would recommend it to anyone who wants to escape into a low stakes cosy fantasy world where life is good when you're making tea, baking and ⬇️

Today is a really hard day. 💙

So I'm trying to find little glimmers of joy where I can. For example - my #botm box arrived today, filled with fantasy goodies!

I started using Litsy daily right after the 2016 election, because I was feeling scared and sad and needed a community. Despite how devastated I'm feeling today, I'm really glad that Litsy is here and that we all have each other! 💕📚

Aims42 Your books arriving is definitely a ray of happiness today 🙌 I love this community for all the reasons you mentioned 💙 2w

So freaking good! You ever need a good romantic comedy that reminds you of watching movies like When Harry Met Sally and its a dreary rainy weekend and all you want to do is lose yourself in the problems of characters that are so loveable and sweet and funny and you're just rooting for them to get their shit together and live happily ever after? Yes, total run on sentence with zero correct punctuation..I know. Don't care. (I adore Shep) 5 stars!!

ItsAnotherJen I should add that if you don't like reading about someone going through the experience of being pregnant, don't read it. The people who didn't like the book as much as I did seem to have a problem with that. Which is completely fine, but warrants mentioning. 3w

It‘s not particularly Christmas-y, and I didn‘t really start to enjoy it until close to the end. I just never fell in love with the main character
