releasing June 27, 2023 from Sourcebooks Casablanca
I love that with each book, Claire Legrand takes on something new. A Crown of Ivy and Glass is the first in a romantasy trilogy. I believe each book will be from the point of view of a different sister.
Gemma is a great heroine for the first book. At first, she seems shallow and silly, only concerned with her appearance and her family’s wealth. But there’s so much more to her: she has chronic pain and deep trauma. And there’s so much character growth throughout the novel.
I loved the magic and worldbuilding in this one. It feels completely lived in, and the Mist is both creepy and beautiful. Reading this book felt lush and green and spooky. I’m a big fan of fantasy that incorporates a little horror.
The romance in this didn’t really work for me, which is what’s kept it from being a 5-star read, but I loved the rest of the book anyway. I’ll definitely be continuing with the trilogy.

Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for my review copy of this book.
