April’s FYA Book Club Pick
A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid
Effy Sayre is the only woman in the architectural college, but she’s only there because she wasn’t allowed to join the literature college, thanks to the sorely antiquated (and frustrating) view that her gender’s flighty nature isn’t well suited to writing or the study of such. Effy’s long idolized her country’s most famous writer, the late Emrys Myrrdin, and she wants nothing more than to study his work—and perhaps write something of her own that is as epic as his Angharad, a story of a woman’s relationship with the Faerie King.
When the chance comes to enter a competition to design a new home for Myrrdin’s estate, she jumps at the chance, even though she doesn’t really care about designing buildings. She just wants to visit the place her favorite author called home and perhaps learn more about the reclusive man.
When she wins, she doesn’t spend long thinking about why they chose a first-year who’s barely passing her classes. But upon reaching Hiraeth Manor, she begins to discover that sometimes it’s better to keep your idols on their pedestals.
