An Enchantment of Ravens

This book was entertaining but I had a few issues with it. Rogerson seems to be making up her own rules of Faerie instead of sticking with what's pretty well established. For one, you should never thank fae or apologize as they're empty words and can be twisted - the characters in this book say ‘thank you' or ‘sorry' constantly, even the fae. Also the obligatory curtseying by the faeries and the fact that they couldn't create a single thing, even holding a hunk of meat on a stick over fire, or they would DIE was weird and new. However, the lack of true emotion and glamour was more “accurate”. It's hard to argue about what should and shouldn't be done in an imaginary world but to completely go off the path from what's an established baseline was hard for someone who reads so many books based in or on Faerie. Besides that, the obvious and predictable romance following the fish out of water and forbidden love tropes to a tee are a little old. Overall, it was an easy, diverting read.
