Oh this was so lovely! It definitely gave me House in the Cerulean Sea vibes, but with witches instead. Always love a good found family trope, and it's strong in this book. Mika thinks she can go on living her life without any connection or relationships, but the little family at the Nowhere House shows her that's not true. 

The characters were absolutely the best part about this book, but the magic and the magic system was also so interesting. Plus, the sunshine witch falls in love with a grumpy librarian? Sign me up.

If you're looking for a cozy fantasy featuring found family to read as the weather gets colder, I definitely recommend this one!
