Margaret Rogerson – An Enchantment of Ravens Audiobook
It feels like it’s been ages given that I read a faerie book, and also a good one at that. Though I’m sure I’ve read some since then, the only ones that enter your mind are Holly Black’s Tithe/Modern Faerie Tales series as well as Melissa Marr’s Evil Beautiful collection (both of which are some of my favored books in general).
I am absolutely adding A Delight of Ravens to that listing!
Let’s begin with the magic. Well, type of magic. In this globe, it’s called Craft, just useful by human beings. Think of talents like paint, composing, food preparation, stitching, and more.

Isobel’s Craft is picture paint, once more creating a stand-out aspect. She’s stubborn and also devoted to her family members, going to do what it takes to maintain them risk-free. You won’t see Isobel putting up with any type of rubbish. Her useful nature (also when it appears at even more unwise times) made her charming and I simply loved her personality as a whole.
After that there’s Rook. Ugh, can somebody just wrap him in a cozy blanket and also provide him a hug? This definitely over-the-top royal prince is such a sweetheart as well as you can not aid however enjoy him. He’s stubborn and also him as well as Isobel wind up in arms commonly enough however who can remain crazy at that face? I assume what worked truly well for him was the method Rogerson treated his interaction with “human” things (like emotions). He’s so raw and authentic about every little thing. I need more Rook!
Together, they journeyed with the Fair Folk courts, on the run. I didn’t locate their trip itself anything amazing however I discovered I didn’t care either.

My only grievance (apart from I just didn’t want it to end) was that the ending itself felt a TAD rushed. However that may just be me as well as my new obsession with this book.
Truthfully, I am in HOPELESS REQUIREMENT of some kind of a sequel or buddy novel or ANYTHING (I ‘d take word scraps on a paper napkin if I could).

Can’t wait on even more by this author! So, I continually maintain seeing comparisons to ACOTAR which is crazy to me. They are absolutely nothing alike.
