"This Ghibli-esque slow-burn fantasy delivers on every promise it offers when it drops Diana Wynne Jones’s Howl’s Moving Castle inside Patricia A. McKillip’s The Forgotten Beasts of Eld."

Library Journal (starred review)

"Sorcery and Small Magics smoulders like spell-paper, set aflame by its singular enchanted setting, a spirited violin soundtrack and plenty of charming chaos. The hesitant care that Leo and Grimm show each other as they work to dispel a genuinely terrifying curse is heart-warming."—Sylvie Cathrall, author of A Letter to the Luminous Deep

"Reading Sorcery and Small Magics feels like stepping into the world of the ultimate comfort story. Packed with humor and heart, Doocy's debut had me grinning from ear to ear and giggling the whole way through. This is a cozy, whimsical spin on academia that will give you all the warm fuzzy feels!"
 —Sydney Shields, author of The Honey Witch

"With a vibrantly imagined world and characters that leap off the page, Sorcery and Small Magics positively sparkles with wit and charm. It's a light-hearted tale of friendship, forgiveness, magic and love. Much like Doocy's opposites-attract heroes, Leo and Grimm, this book sings, leaving you spellbound and wanting more."—Julie Leong, author of The Teller of Small Fortunes

"[An] enchanting debut ... The subtle chemistry between Leo and Sebastian is addictive and the fantasy setting, while somewhat familiar, is rendered in lush prose. Fans of Legends & Lattes and the works of TJ Klune will want to snap this up."

Publishers Weekly

"A queer cozy fantasy filled with shenanigans and compelling enemies-to-something that will have readers eagerly awaiting book two."

Booklist

"As sparkling and delicious as enchanted champagne, Sorcery and Small Magics is full of wit, joy and real heart. I loved it!"—Stephanie Burgis, author of Scales and Sensibility

Sorcery and Small Magics is nothing short of masterful. Leo Lovage could read me the phone book and I’d be delighted, and I would gladly take an arrow for either Leo or Grimm.”—Megan Bannen, author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

"Charming, cheeky and utterly magical."—Davinia Evans, author of Notorious Sorcerer
