🔮 The Keeper of Magical Things by Julie Leung
One warehouse, two mages, dozens of slightly magical objects—and one very inconvenient crush.
Certainty Bulrush wants to matter. Aurelia wants to prove herself. Neither expects a sleepy town to stir up questions about magic, meaning, and the value of connection. A beautifully gentle cosy fantasy about restoration—of people, of places, and of purpose.
✦ For fans of “doing your best” stories, soft magic systems, reluctant friendships, and awkward yearning.

Juggling change with grace, even when the footing is wobbly. Certainty is trying to hold space for everyone—her brother, her mentor, her growing heart. This card’s soft balance reflects the novel’s tone perfectly: light-footed, quietly determined, and infinitely kind.
