I really enjoyed An Enchantment of Ravens because of its fantastical world and the strong characters. There were parts of the story that dragged for me in terms of pacing but overall I enjoyed the reading experience. If you like dark fantasy that holds true to the more mythological truths of the Fae I think you will enjoy this book. This was a 4 out of 5 star book for me.

This story would have been better for me if the pacing was a little more concise. I felt like the first half of the book the pacing was working so well but then we got to more of the action and I felt that the author was trying to create an ending that kept the reader on the edge of their seats but it fell a little flat for me personally. There were some graphic depictions of things decaying that made me a little queasy but other than that I didn't see any other problematic things in terms of the relationship of our main characters.

The biggest appeal for me was the fact that the Fae in this story hold true to the more mythological depiction of Fae. I loved that our main character Isobel knew to be careful in the way that she word the enchantments that she wanted for payment in a way that were very specific just so that the Fae couldn't do what they did to so many other humans. I also really liked that Isobel was a strong character on her own who knew what she wanted in life and that her Craft never became second to the love interest.

Here is one of my favorite quotes from Isobel " I'd always scoffed at stories in which maidens pine for their absent suitors, boys they've hardly known a week and have no business falling for. Didn't they realize their lives were worth more than the dubious affection of one silly young man?"

I think that this book had a lot to offer and overall really enjoyed my time reading this book.
