What is your favorite cozy fantasy book? 🌿 It’s b What is your favorite cozy fantasy book? 🌿

It’s been really fun to see how cozy fantasy books have become so popular over the last several years. When done well, reading one of these stories can feel like a comforting hug or sitting down with a cup of something warm and yummy 😌

The Teller of Small Fortunes was a book I read last year and enjoyed very much. I have The Keeper of Magical Things on my TBR for this year 🙌🏼

Some of my very favorite cozy fantasy books are...
🌪️ The Nature of Witches
☕️ Legends & Lattes (series)
🪴 The Spellshop (series)
🐉 The Tea Dragon Society (series)
🧹 The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches AND A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping
 🥖 A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking
🪄 Selcouth (series)
🫖 The Spellbound Sisters (series)
 🗡️ This Will Be (series)
🍄 A Curious Kind of Magic
💀 The Bone Houses AND The Drowned Woods AND The Wild Huntress
🍵 Tomes and Tea (series)

Aaaaand that’s where I’ll cut that list off because otherwise we’ll be here for days 😂 

Have you read any of these books? 📚

In honor of my first day at my new job at my favor In honor of my first day at my new job at my favorite local coffee shop (everyone say “YAY!” 🥳)… would you take the characters from your current read for a cup of coffee? ☕️

💎 I feel like it would be so fascinating to take Brynja, Ballast, and Saga from When the Light Returns to go get coffee. I’d have so many questions about their magic!

🐦‍🔥 I would give anything to take the entire group of characters from Ruin and Rising to get coffee. It would be such a dream to talk to the people from my favorite series!

📖 To sit down and have a chat with Diana and Matthew from The Book of Life over coffee would be incredible. They’re both so intelligent and I think I’d just sit there gaping at them the entire time!

♟️Honestly, I’d be thrilled to have coffee with *anyone* from The Inheritance Games universe. They’re BRILLIANT and I want to pick their brains for hours on end.

Last summer, along with the rest of *absolutely everyone*, I watched KPop Demon Hunters... and fell head over heels in love with every single thing about it 🙈 

It was a chain reaction of epic proportions 💥 I watched it about a week after it premiered because I kept seeing it online. I liked it, watched it again a week later, LOVED it, suggested it to friends who suggested it to their friends, started deep-diving into all of the behind-the-scenes info, wound up listening to the soundtrack so much that my entire Spotify Wrapped was just songs from that album, still somehow manage to talk about it nonstop to everyone I encounter, and I can’t WAIT for the sequel. Let’s just say it kinda became my personality 😂

Along with KPDH, I spent the last year and some change obsessing over One Tree Hill (first time watching it, got to meet some of the cast last summer, have turned Wilmington into my second home, you know... normal obsessed fan things 😉) and Marielle Kraft’s music (SO FREAKING GOOD. Saw her in concert and got to meet her as well and she’s the sweetest human) 🤎

Do we have any obsessions in common? 🤝🏼

Recently, I finished THE SUN AND THE STARMAKER by @timesnewrachel ☀️ While it was quite different from the modern, witchy fantasy books I’ve come to associate with her (otherwise known as some of my favorite books of all time), she has created a signature style of storytelling that made reading *this book* feel like coming home 🥰

I felt it instantly when I sensed her intense love for nature and the earth woven through the story, paired with such atmospheric writing that I regularly forgot I was not *in* the ethereal, whimsical world I was reading about 🌌 I felt it again in the way she writes of longing and love so powerful that there’s no doubt the characters will overcome every obstacle they face together 🤎 I felt it once more when I began to cry over supporting characters that (possibly) weren’t meant to elicit such strong emotions in the first place 🥹

THE SUN AND THE STARMAKER was everything I could possibly hope and dream a fairytale would be. It was beautiful and magical, and left me feeling so filled with joy and hope. It’s an absolute masterpiece 🙌🏼

Have you read this or any of Rachel’s other books? 📚

I gotta be real honest with y’all... I don’t read a ton of vampire books 😅 I was a wolf girly starting in middle school, and that really hasn’t changed much. I do love a good vampire book, but they haven’t always been my favorite supernatural creature 🙈

However, maybe due to the V.E. Schwab magic, I absolutely adored Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil 😍 It was precisely as toxic as she promised it would be, and I ATE IT UP. It was dark, seductive, sometimes bloody, and there was never a dull moment. I genuinely didn’t want it to end.

Have you read this one yet? 📖

In Omnia Paratus

In Omnia Paratus means “ready for all things” – and I can tell you right now I’m ready to curl up with some #coffeecoffeecoffee and binge-watch Gilmore Girls.

Okay, so the truth is I’m always ready to watch Gilmore Girls, considering it’s my favorite show of all time. If you haven’t gotten a chance to go through this series yet, now is the best time to begin. There’s something about autumn that makes the storyline even more appealing. It’s just so … cozy. In fact, there may be some Gilmore Girls elements at my upcoming bachelorette party! I jumped at the opportunity to include Chinese take-out, Founders Day punch, and coffee-related drinking games.

The whole point behind my ramblings over this show is because the graphic tee in this outfit displays the phrase “In Omnia Paratus” – which, if you know anything about the series, is quite the exclamation! It’s also brought about by my least-favorite of Rory’s boyfriends, but what can you do? 😂 Major thank-you to Thread Tank for sending me this $25 relaxed t-shirt. I may even need to wear it to my bachelorette!

Check out their other clothing options for the Gilmore Girls fan here!

outfit details

top c/o Thread Tank | pants | similar jacket | shoes | similar purse | canvas bag c/o West Elm

One thing all the Gilmore Girls had in common was that they enjoyed being comfortable!

Alright, maybe not Emily (Lorelai’s mother), but we can disregard her high standards for fashion – and everything else. I’m certainly a combination of Rory and Lorelai in personality and style, so I wanted to incorporate a bit of them both in this outfit. My practical denim jacket and spacious tote bag are options I could see Rory sporting for a day of classes at Yale. Lorelai would be slightly unpractical (yet forward-thinking) with her cutting-edge fashion choices, and that may include my incredibly distressed denim and platform sneakers. The entire outfit from head-to-toe is the best of both worlds, and still comfy! Plus, no matter where you go, if you’re carrying coffee, you’re an honorary Gilmore Girl!

So the most important Gilmore Girls question yet: are you Team Dean, Jess, Logan … or Wookiee? 😉
