If this is the sort of book you like, reading this is like wrapping a warm fluffy blanket around you while drinking something hot and healthy. It's sweet and tender filled with food, soooo much food and tea. There's plenty of magic but not the flashy kind of magic, this is the nurturing kind of magic. The characterisation is amazing, the world building is intentionally hazy while still providing lots of interesting details. Some open-ended story lines, this is part 1 after all, but a very satisfying conclusion regardless.
