If you were a storm, I would lie down and rest in your rain. If you were a river, I would drink from your currents. If you were a poem, I would never cease to read you. I adore the woman you have become.

Title: The Queen's Rising
Author: Rebecca Ross
Series or standalone: series
Publication year: 2018
Genres: fiction, fantasy, romance, historical fiction
Blurb: When her seventeenth summer solstice arrives, Brienna desires only two things: to master her passion and to be chosen by a patron. Growing up in the southern kingdom of Valenia at the renowned Magnalia House should have prepared her. While some are born with a talent for one of the five passions - art, music, dramatics, wit, and knowledge - Brienna struggled to find hers, eventually choosing knowledge. However, despite all her preparations, Brienna's greatest fear comes true: she is left without a patron. Months later, her life takes an unexpected turn when a disgraced lord offers her patronage. Suspicious of his intent, she reluctantly accepts...but there is much more to his story. There is a dangerous plot to overthrow the king of Maevana - the rival kingdom of Valenia - and restore the rightful queen - and her magic - to the throne, and others are involved, some closer to Brienna than she realises. With war brewing, Brienna must choose whose side she will remain loyal to: passion or blood. A queen is destined to rise and lead the battle to reclaim the crown...but who will that queen be?

Inspiring: Even the lamest sorority girl can shatter the wheel of reincarnation by subsuming her selfhood to the pursuit of pure violence!

Also just think of Brian and Freddie - the two who write the songs and both of whom have a healthy ego - putting John and Roger at the centre of this collage. Even if it is a doll of Roger.
