An Enchantment of Ravens Margaret Rogerson Books

I NEED ANOTHER BOOK.

It feels like it’s been ages since I read a faerie book, and a good one at that. Though I’m sure I’ve read some since then, the only ones that come to mind are Holly Black’s Tithe/Modern Faerie Tales series and Melissa Marr’s Wicked Lovely series (both of which are some of my favorite books in general).

I am absolutely adding An Enchantment of Ravens to that list!

Let’s start with the magic. Well, sort of magic. In this world, it’s called Craft, only usable by humans. Think of talents like painting, writing, cooking, sewing, and so on. These humans work their Craft in Whimsy where the Fair Folk come to visit them and purchase their Craft in exchange for enchantments. I loved the idea of Craft. It just felt fresh and new and while I’m sure it’s been done before, not in any book I’ve read and I thought it was a great addition to the inclusion of the Fair Folk in the book.

Isobel’s Craft is portrait painting, once again making for a stand-out element. She’s strong-willed and loyal to her family, willing to do what it takes to keep them safe. You won’t see Isobel putting up with any nonsense. Her practical nature (even when it appears at more impractical times) made her endearing and I just loved her character in general.

Then there’s Rook. Ugh, can someone just wrap him in a warm blanket and give him a hug? This absolutely over-the-top prince is such a sweetheart and you can’t help but love him. He’s stubborn and him and Isobel end up at odds often enough but who can stay mad at that face? I think what worked really well for him was the way Rogerson treated his interaction with “human” things (like emotions). He’s just so raw and genuine about everything. I need more Rook!

Together, they journeyed through the Fair Folk courts, on the run. I didn’t find their journey itself anything remarkable but I found I didn’t care either. I read for the characters who I loved almost instantly, and the writing which is very well executed and will immediately suck you in.

My only complaint (other than I simply didn’t want it to end) was that the ending itself felt a TAD rushed. But that might just be me and my new obsession with this book.

Honestly, I am in DESPERATE NEED of some sort of a sequel or companion novel or ANYTHING (I’d take word scraps on a napkin if I could). This book is all sorts of perfect for fans who’ve been missing that classic fae style with a new twist. You won’t be able to get enough of An Enchantment of Ravens.

I’m just all sorts of gushing right now, y’all. This book just rocked my YA fantasy list and if you don’t have it on your to-read shelf then there’s something wrong so get on that! Can’t wait for more by this author!

An Enchantment of Ravens Margaret Rogerson Books Reviews

I was thrilled to finally get my hands on Margaret Rogerson’s debut novel, An Enchantment of Ravens. Often described as the “perfect fall read,” it truly is, with lush, magical scenery and an adventure reminiscent of a fairy tale. I probably could have read it in a day or two, but it was such a pleasure that I tried to make it last as long as possible, delaying the inevitable end. I found myself wishing for more books with these characters, but according to Rogerson, this book was written as a standalone. (If she changes her mind, though, I’ll take any glimpse of Whimsy and the fairylands that I can get!)

I love the world Rogerson has created, from the peculiar town of Whimsy to the alluring and dangerous fairylands. Fans of Sarah J. Maas’s A Court of Thorns and Roses series may find the fairy courts in this book — spring, summer, fall, and winter — reminiscent of those described in her trilogy. But I found the depiction of the fair ones to be more dangerous and haunting. While they are, in some ways, similar to fey found in other YA books, Rogerson shows that their legendary beauty is built on a lie, and their love of mischief and trickery runs deep. I found Isobel to be a likeable, realistic protagonist, with conflicted emotions and a soul-deep sense of duty to her family. And where do I begin with Rook? In some ways, he fits the archetype of the rude, stubborn love interest who eventually grows to love his equally-stubborn companion. But it was such a delight to see his interactions with Isobel change and deepen. He’s definitely book boyfriend material.

There were parts of the book that felt a little predictable. It’s not difficult to imagine how it ends before it even happens. But again, much like a fairy tale, that predictability comes with the story a handsome fairy prince whisks a lovely human girl away, and during their journey, they fall in love. I still thoroughly enjoyed this book and the way it went about telling that story. While the concept is something we’ve seen before, the writing is sharp and engaging. I also had a few lingering questions at the end of the book, but despite wanting answers, I can appreciate it when an author leaves some details to the reader’s imagination.

Overall, I think this was a strong debut, and it really is a wonderful book to curl up with. Make some tea, grab a cozy blanket, and lose yourself in the forests with Isobel and Rook.
