Heyyy everyone!

Dropping the next Sketch-a-Wish, frequently requested by my lovely Patreon members. Featuring Isobel and Rook from AN ENCHANTMENT OF RAVENS by Margaret Rogerson

I had such fond memories of reading this stand-alone a while back, but completely forgot about this little exchange between these two (over a consequential teapot). The room has leaves falling, but imagined how magical it would be to have them falling from a canopy all through the night (with a magical clean-up in the morning).

This has been added to shop along with my other collection of Margaret Rogerson prints!

Inspired by the art concept of Nick Thornborrow

"Are you sure this is a good idea?

- Aren't you the one who liked bad ideas?

- Yes, but not to the point where your nonna could see it."

Lucanis laughed softly, leaving a trail of kisses on Rook's throat.

"Maybe. But I want to love you here."

Rook's heart melted in her chest.

" You are unbelievable"

Is always "you're cute" and never "I love you wholly. I love you eternally. I love you so dearly it frightens me. I fear I could not live without you. I could see your face every morning upon waking for ten thousand years and still look forward to the next as though it were the first.”

Not me reading An Enchantment of Ravens in one sitting and the whole time I pictured Isobel as a brunette and then when I closed the book I was like who the fuck is this blonde chick on the cover

REVIEW // An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson

★★★★☆

One thing I will say to anyone thinking of picking up this book: approach it as a cute ROMANCE, not as a fantasy adventure. That is exactly where An Enchantment of Ravens delivers-the relationship between Isobel and Rook is unbelievably cute. Isobel is a refreshingly likable protagonist, and Rook is a himbo and I LOVE HIM. The plot and world-building are extremely surface level, but I found myself not really caring about that since the most appealing element of the story, as I mentioned, is the romance. Rogerson clearly set out to write a love story and she did a fantastic job of that.

There are certain elements that are mentioned and not developed that I did get a bit hung up on-like the human world? What is it? It's mentioned a couple times but I still have no idea what it is or how it differs from the place the story takes place in. There's a certain amount of exposition regarding the different seasonal courts and some sort of corruption or issue appearing, but, again, it isn't really explored beyond its initial introduction. The story also seems to end really abruptly, which is ultimately what made me take it down from five stars to four. Most of the other issues I was willing to ignore because this is ultimately a cute love story, but the fact that at the end we get the reveal that (SPOILER) Isobel is now the Queen and that she and Rook will get married seems really sudden. Then we get a little "it's not a happily ever after but we sure do have an adventure in front of us" and I thought "great, good for you, but can we maybe get a little more about this proposal of marriage?? how are you now in charge??? girl what?????" (SPOILER END) This was a really cute romance, but I think if you go into expecting some epic fantasy story you will be disappointed.

They're happy and very soft with each other 🖤
