We're off to a charming start as we meet Eliza, understand a bit of her backstory, learn some of her quirks and meet some of the people in her life. This first impression takes us to the moment when everything changed dramatically after Eliza's very straightforward and planned life is completely upended. We're left hanging to find out what her next steps will be - all we know is that it's definitely going to be a wild ride and not what you'd expect from someone who settles for safe and routine.

This feels like it'll be a quick read with quirky characters (Eliza and her godmothers) who are appealing and charming in their idiosyncracies. It hints at transformation and positive changes in the future while simultaneously leaving some hints of possible storm clouds ahead. This seems like it'll ultimately be a feel-good book with characters that you root for - we could all use some of that brightness these days.
