Omgggg I absolutely loved this book so much! What a perfect read to add to my collection of historical romantasys! Definitely a new favorite!!!
A Fragile Enchantment was an absolutely beautiful and magical book. It was so unique with its magic, the fmc is able to weave emotions into clothing and fabric and it was so cool and amazing. I loved that aspect so so much. The relationship between Niamh and Kit was so beautiful, I absolutely loved their bickering and flirting and romantic moments. Literally every main character in this was a fav of mine. Sinclair, Rosa, Niamh, Kit, and Miriam were all absolutely perfect.
This book was a romantasy that followed the regency time period and as an avid fan of Bridgerton this book was the perfect embodiment of all the drama, gossip and scandal. Even with its own scandal sheet. If Bridgerton was fantasy this book would be it. Not to mention the book used the fantasy world to discuss real life situations/issues such as underpaid workers/middle class and class divisions. While some may have not liked the ending I really enjoyed it. It ended the love story perfectly while still alluding to working towards a better future for all characters.
Every scene in this book was perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing. I would love a Novella about some of the other characters or even a second book.
Also this book had great LGBTQ+ representation! So many of the main and side characters were represented with this and I think the author did a good job executing it. Like I mentioned before I would love to read novellas of another book about the side characters in the future.
Overall I really enjoyed this book and definitely recommend to those who are looking for a magical and swooning romance and those who, like me, have grown to love historical romantasy.
Excited to read more by this author in the future!
Thank you to NetGalley and Wednesday Books and the author, Allison Saft, for an E-ARC of this book!
