A Treason of Thorns
by Laura E. Weymouth
So when people say "I'd read this author's grocery list," Laura is that author for me. The writing in this (and [b:The Light Between Worlds|34842042|The Light Between Worlds|Laura E. Weymouth|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1526501437l/34842042._SY75_.jpg|56074375]) is just so luxurious. It just pulls me in so I feel all of the world and connect with the characters with each step of their development. Her writing is PERFECT for Gothic fantasies and histories. Her and [a:Lyndsay Faye|1894025|Lyndsay Faye|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1317684103p2/1894025.jpg] have such iconic writing with that tone and I just cannot get enough of their stuff (literally. I've read basically all of their publications I can get my hands on). Now that I've read this the day after it came out, I'm in this horrible position (same one I'm in with [a:Moïra Fowley-Doyle|9013537|Moïra Fowley-Doyle|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/f_50x66-6a03a5c12233c941481992b82eea8d23.png]). Please join me:
1. find an author early in their career
2. read all their books.
3. complain there are no more books
4. then complain when you find an author that you're 10 books behind on and decide to not event try and catch up on those.
We need to discuss what witchcraft (Laura called it "soup magic" on Twitter), Laura Weymouth has been doing to get 2 of the most gorgeous book covers known to man. They're both stunning on my bookshelves but they also are wonderful representations of the content itself.
As I expected from this, Violet's whole story just continuously crushed me. She has a wonderful heart but has been put in a terrible position. I felt everything she did and wanted to fight most of the other characters in her honor. The weird situations of Burleigh and it's unbinding throughout the whole book was a bit confusing to me at times but it all wrapped together beautifully at the end. All that confusion was like -0.5 stars but then she threw in multiple timelines and earned like 500 stars back. That's how I rate, okay? Deal with it!
I was expecting the ending to be as devastating to me as [b:The Light Between Worlds|34842042|The Light Between Worlds|Laura E. Weymouth|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1526501437l/34842042._SY75_.jpg|56074375] (for real, read that book if you haven't. It's amazing.). Now the ending was by NO means happy but it didn't leave me scream crying for answers the way [b:The Light Between Worlds|34842042|The Light Between Worlds|Laura E. Weymouth|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1526501437l/34842042._SY75_.jpg|56074375] did. I don't know that she can ever write something as amazing as that book for me (especially since it was also a surprise as hell amazing debut). I would LOVE for this world to be expanded on in companion novels. There's other houses in England, there's the origin story of the houses being bound in England AND there's houses bound all over the world in different manners (discussed in the book). I would throw so much money at the publisher for that content!
Come for the dark Gothic fantasy magic in England. Stay cause Burleigh grew ivy and locked you in.
