Texas Library Association's 2025 Lariat Reading List

Excited to share that THE SPELLSHOP was selected for the Texas Library Association's 2025 Lariat Reading List of 25 outstanding fiction titles that are "simply a pleasure to read." Thanks so much, Texas librarians!

I'm grateful, honored, and particularly fond of the blurb they wrote to describe the book:

"This charming fantasy novel follows Kiela, a shy librarian, and her sentient spider plant assistant, Caz, as they flee from a coup with forbidden magic books. Navigating the world of illegal spellcasting in a cozy, magical setting, they find a community and we find a heartwarming story with endearing characters and a hope-filled touch of sweet romance."
