anabel_unker 's review for:
A Fragile Enchantment
by Allison Saft
*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*
Niamh Ó Conchobhair has taken it upon herself to defy fate. She will not allow her family to starve in their war-torn homeland of Machland and works herself to the bone making a name for herself as a dress maker. Her gowns, thanks to her magic of imbuing clothing with emotion and skill as a designer, become so highly sought after she is commissioned by the Prince Regent of neighboring Avaland to create the wedding wardrobe for his younger brother, Kit Carmine. After her journey to the new land, Niamh has only one plan-- make it through the wedding season with her health intact and her pockets lined with enough coin to open her own dress shop and support her family. However, Niamh soon finds herself in over her head as she starts to look past the shiny veneer of both Avaland and its Prince Kit.
Brimming with delicious longing and magic, A FRAGILE ENCHANTMENT captures the spirit of Miyazaki's Howl's Moving Castle with all the frothy delight of a regency era romance. Its representation of the queer community and mental health is commendable, and Saft did a marvelous job of creating a truly stunning and enchanting world rife with political intrigue.
