It really does have that beautiful yet mysterious vibe of spirited away! my all time favourite. the world setting is clear, and the detail of the inn household and the meals warm my heart... I hope it will stay that way along the progress

I got the first three volumes of this series in a box delivered from my local library (via a program for the home-bound), and only started reading them when I'd read everything else. It surprised me with excellent world-building and character background depth. The first chapter was a little weak, but only by comparison with the rest of the series. I can't wait till volume 4 gets delivered in my August library box!
