Luckily, it really is just a sub-plot but it does inform some of the important conflicts and miscommunications that drive the main plot forward. But man, I really think this story could’ve done without a petty rivalry over the same guy. Admittedly, getting me invested in romance sub-plots is pretty hard so take my opinion on this with a grain of salt. This is of course not the book’s fault and while I did not particularly enjoy the romances (more on that in a second), I just thought I’d mention it in case anybody else also got queer vibes from The Ravens! It is not! Maybe I just associate witches with sapphic stories so I was slightly disappointed when I found out that the main romances are straight. The witches’ magic is based on tarot cards and as a tarot reader myself it was fun to see the cards used as the basis for various spells!įor some reason, I assumed this book was queer, specifically sapphic. I especially appreciated getting to read about characters who are at college and thus a bit closer to my own age. The setting and magic system immediately drew me in. I love anything witchy and magical, so my love for The Ravens shouldn’t be a surprise.
