Link at end. Found it! This series is what landed me in Cozy Fantasy! This series is what started it all for me. Book 1 is Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries https://bookshop.org/a/77/978059350014...
@nprofile1q... I loved it! It’s up for a Hugo for best series this year. So good. I’m not sure I’d classify it as “cozy”. It feels a little closer to Marie Brennan’s Memoirs of Lady Trent books, which I love with a passion. Starts with A Natural History of Dragons.
