I was *going* to try just listening to the audiobook during walks, but it was too fun to dole it out in bits. I really enjoyed this, and now I want sentient plant familiars, dangit.

Today is the book birthday for THE SPELLSHOP! It's a cozy fantasy about a rogue librarian and her best friend, a sentient spider plant! And it's for anyone who is looking for a slice of joy, a bit of comfort, or just a deep breath. www.sarahbethdurst.com/Spellshop.htm

You've seen the phrase all over Twitter, Goodreads, and the taglines of upcoming releases. But how do we define cozy fantasy? Grab some tea and take a seat as @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social, author of The Spellshop, discusses cozy fantasy's rise to popularity: reactormag.com/the-rise-of-...

The Rise of Cozy Fantasy - Reactorreactormag.com Lots of books qualify as comfort reads—but what makes cozy distinctive is that it offers sanctuary.
