Maria Llovet's Eros/Psyche
by Maria Llovet
Eros/Psyche is a sapphic young adult romance graphic novel omnibus that collects four individual issues and extra art into one section. It comes from Maria LLovet from Barcelona.
It follows two young women/teen girls, Silje and Sara who attend La Rosa (the Rose) boarding school. it features young witches learning magic in a school that has rigorous rules and consequences for breaking them can lead up to death.It does however have intricate, entrancing art and covers the themes of love, devotion, tragedy and young women coming into themselves.
The plot followed a good narrative and the gorgeous artwork that features many elements of flowers, minimalism, shadow and light really drives the story home. I did feel choked up at parts. Though it is a young adult novel about love, any of the physical parts are handled tastefully and though the relationship progressed quickly, I did not feel as if it was done so uselessly. The characters fit well together.
The art mixed many elements of 'traditional' hearth witch magic, involving flowers, tinctures, and and mystical elements as well. I want to buy this with my own money just to display, it was enchanting. If I may make one criticism, the ending felt a little rushed for me, personally, and I was a little disappointed with how it was left off. That may have been a personal choice by the author, though. Some of the images may be triggering for younger viewers, though it is age appropriate as described. I would give this a solid four out of five.
I would recommend this strongly to any fans of sapphic romance, witchy vibes, cottage core hearth witch bloody delight. I wish I had more words to encapsulate the entire atmosphere of this book.
