About this listen
Perfect for fans of Travis Baldree and TJ Klune, The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst is a New York Times bestselling cosy fantasy tale full of stolen spellbooks, unexpected friendships, sweet jams and even sweeter romance.
'Reading this book was like sitting in the sun . . . a warm, peaceful delight of a novel' – Katherine Arden, author of The Bear and the Nightingale
Every home needs a little magic . . .
Kiela has always had trouble dealing with people, and as librarian at the Great Library of Alyssium, she hasn’t had to.
She and her assistant, Caz, a sentient spider plant, have spent most of the last eleven years sequestered among the empire’s precious spellbooks, protecting the magic for the city’s elite. But a revolution is brewing and when the library goes up in flames, Kiela and Caz steal whatever books they can and flee to the faraway island where she grew up. But to her dismay, in addition to a nosy – and very handsome – neighbour, she finds the town in disarray.
The empire has slowly been draining power from the island, and now Kiela is determined to make things right. But opening up her own spellshop comes with its own risks – the consequence of sharing magic with commoners is death. And as Kiela starts to make a place for herself among the townspeople, she realizes she must break down the walls she has kept so high . . .
From award-winning author Sarah Beth Durst, The Spellshop is a cottagecore cosy fantasy following a woman's unexpected journey through the low-stakes market of illegal spell-selling and the high-risk business of starting over.
'Sarah Beth Durst is the hidden gem of the fantasy world' – Book Riot

Really good story concept
Honestly really enjoyed it. Loved the storyline, concept, and characters. It sometimes felt a little amateur in its writing at times, but it was fine

Delightful
I love the cosy sweetness of this book. From talking plants to found family and the sweetest romance without any horrible bits. It is my favourite book in a long time.

Cozy & fun
I really enjoyed this book and found the storytelling engaging,pleasing, well read and passionate.
All characters were distinct from each other, no confusion on who was speaking & emotions were clear.

Good story
Good story if not a bit waffly. I saw another review said the narrator was a bit shrill and they weren’t joking. I wish the narrator was a bit less ‘proper’ and had more emotion with less roboticness

A wonderful beautiful world filled with magic and love!
Loved the wholesomeness of it! Loved being able to picture this magical world coming to life all around me! I really want more stories about this beautiful island and all the wonders it possesses!
The reader also did a wonderful job with the voices and narrating! Pronouncing the spells with such confidence and not a single stutter!
