I loved A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking as well as SwordHeart, so I think this officially marks me as a T. Kingfisher fan, and I’m pretty sure I have another three or four of her books downloaded at this moment.

What I liked:
– Quirky characters with a fun voice
– Interesting magic/horror elements
– Quick read
– The writing style is both fun and interesting, (and at times, revolting in a horror-y way) keeping me engaged from the first page

What I didn’t like:
– This was a short book, but I feel like I would’ve like a little more from all of the support characters (but mostly the handyman)

Totally recommend for anyone looking for a quick, fun read with a fun main character and little pops of horror and magic. And I’m looking forward to my next read from Kingfisher.

⭐⭐⭐⭐½

Basically 2024 turned into a big T. Kingfisher year, and I’m all about it.

Thanks for reading!
