However, I couldn’t divorce myself from my clinical hat that I constantly wear. It didn’t need to be a whole subplot for the story. It was lovely to see the actualities of teens figuring out their sexuality and what they like in a subtle way. What I liked about this was how subtle the story was with a polyam relationship and BDSM themes. But I still understand it extremely well. I didn’t allow that kind of relationship to begin. So, I don’t do romantic relationships well. This was long before I figured out that I wasn’t just ace, but I was aroace. A long, long time ago, I dated someone who tried to create that kind of relationship with me. She really grasped it and I found that impressive. I have issues with this, honestly, but I think that Ancrum showed accurately the experience of teens. Jack has extreme delusions of a fantasy world come to life, one that August can’t see but actively participates in throughout the story. This story is about a codependent relationship between August and Jack that worsens and changes as Jack’s delusions worsen.Īnd, that’s basically the story. I’m going to talk about The Wicker King first, then get into The Legend of the Golden Raven. Since I read these books back to back, I thought that I would be smart to kind of review these in the same post. CW: mental illness, hallucinations, neglect, and codependent relationship
