cozy fantasy books

I'd like to read a lot of the books on this list.

Cozy Fantasy

Looking for a low-stakes and comforting book? A cozy fantasy may be just what you're looking for. Featuring goodhearted characters, supportive friends, magical elements, and often even found family, cozy fantasies are a great palate cleanser between epic fantasy reads, or just when you are looking for a heart-warming book to curl up with.

Whoa! One of the books on that list (A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking) is under the imprint of a lifelong friend of mine who owns a publishing company. I have a copy right around the corner, though I haven't read it yet. I did, however, read A Minor Mage a couple months back, delightful and certainly cozy. I've also read her The Raven and the Reindeer, which is also delightful, but very much not cozy.

Ursula Vernon (T. Kingfisher) is solid, I highly recommend her stuff. If you've never read her webcomic Digger, it's a classic.

'Ursula', 'Vernon', and 'Kingfisher' all sound like familiar sci-fi/fantasy author names to me, but it seems that I haven't read any of her work before. The Digger webcomic does look good; I added it to my to-read list.
