#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. 2w

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

I absolutely adored every minute of this book. The characters are loveable, the storyline is quirky, the humour will make you audibly chuckle, and the truth of the words will help you see a truth in yourself. And despite many of the scenarios and circumstances being far from anything I‘ve ever experienced, I still found it all relatable. The more I think back on my time with this story, the more I enjoy it and wish it would magically continue.

All witches are orphans. & the rules state it is better for witches to be raised alone. So imagine Maya‘s surprise when she gets contacted out of the blue to help tutor three young witches.

This was the perfect cozy fantasy to end the month on. Warm & soft, w/ so many absolutely lovely characters, this was a joy to read. I loved how the magic worked. The romance felt a bit quick, but overall this was so sweet.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
