Natasha Duarte natahippiee65a — Still, this book was also behind in ratings with Twilight! But they can't all be that good. lol

Emily Boysza emilyannee — This was one of the first books I ever added to my TBR shelf here on Goodreads, and the fact that it's only now, almost four years later, that I'm getting to the book says sad things about all the books I hope to read. (mainly that I'll never have an empty tbr shelf, but whatevs......) ANYHOW, ON TO THE REVIEW. I am seriously always down for pirate fiction. Since I was a young child, I have been fascinated by pirate lore and customs and everything that has to do with the Navy/ocean. So when I saw this on Book Outlet, I immediately put it in my cart. I really enjoyed this book. I think that there's this idea that all pirates are cut throat thugs, with no honor code, and while there were a lot of those, there were also many pirates who were just regular people who wanted the freedom that sailing the ocean afforded. This book leans toward the second type of pirates. I really like the premise of this book. I love a protagonist who's not perfect and is mopey over a loss, and she's not unrealistically positive after she loses the championship in her sport. I think the pacing of the story is great, and it's not too unbelievably clean. Like, there are some curse words, there's some convincing injuries and Vaughn doesn't shy away from telling the gritty details (like, cutting off a limb was the preferred method of treatment for a serious gunshot wound because more often than not, there would be an infection and then death otherwise.) There were a few spots where I thought some details were glanced ver in order to keep the story going and/or finish it in less than 300 pages, but it wasn't anything that really took away from the plot. The noly think I really think I would have liked more is if she had changed the ending and (view spoiler) All in all, I'm really glad I got around to reading this, because I thought it was a good story and a good reason to listen to the PotC soundtrack on repeat
