Grumpy x Sunshine but make it sapphic and cozy! This book is in the same world as "Teller of Fortunate Things" - and while I couldn't completely embrace that book, "Keeper of Magical Things" has me in its comfy, magic-infused grip. Certainty is a novice, wanting nothing more than becoming a mage and finally being useful. Right now all she can do is talk with objects. Aurelia is a mage, and you can easily see why she's called the "Ice Queen". When there's an overabundance of magical objects, the two of them are tasked to transport them to a desolate village to store them away for good. But what if the artefacts might be useful to the villagers who've had a hard time since a mage-war left them with almost nothing? And what if what awaits in the village is resentment at first, but found family later? And ultimately - what if the Ice Queen is melting for the Certainty? A real cozy book, and it won me over especially with the ending, where all the emotional investment pays off. Also you have chatty teapots and cat dragons. There's really nothing more left to wish for. 4,5/5 stars Thank you @netgalley and @hodderbooks for the eARC! #KeeperOfMagicalThings #Netgalley #CozyFantasy #Bookstagram
