Book Review: "On the Origins of Magic" – Cosy Fantasy Perfect for a Gentle Afternoon
If you’re searching for your next quick, feel-good read, "On the Origins of Magic"—releasing August 26—should be on your radar! As an avid papercrafter and planner (and cosy fantasy enthusiast), I always like to compare books within their niche. For what this little gem is meant to be—a short, sweet, romantacy exscape.
It’s ideal for a relaxing break or an anytime pick-me-up.
Enjoyable Worldbuilding: Even in a short read, the magical world feels inviting.
Apples to Apples: Not Every Book Needs to Be Epic
As a reviewer, I believe in comparing apples to apples. Not every book needs to have towering stakes or a ten-book saga of backstory. Sometimes, what we truly need is a gentle story to refresh our imagination. For fans of cosy fantasies, light magic, and character-driven plots, "On the Origins of Magic" is a lovely choice that delivers exactly what it promises.
Reader-to-Reader: My Bottom Line
I gave it five stars because it shines within its genre. If you love stories that feel like a friendly chat or a comforting afternoon—rather than a fast-paced marathon—this release will be a delightful addition to your shelf or planner. It’s also a great candidate for your TBR if you want a shorter read between larger series.
Let me know if you plan to check it out, or if you have other cosy fantasy favorites to recommend!
