This was a great way to end this duology. The word I would describe it as is sweet. I did enjoy the first book more. This one lived in the same place for too long - I felt the first one had more adventure. The last 50 pages made it all worth it.

I can see this little duo being a summer comfort read! I really don’t think all too much happens with the plot but the characters and vibes are so nice! Iv had a lot of fun reading this and it’s first part! Easy 5 stars ⭐️ for pure vibe!

Like I said it book one, I really don’t think you can go wrong with pirate stories. These books have been full of so much adventure, found family, scavenger hunting, and also generational mystery which I have really loved. Fable’s relationship with Saint
adventurous

Namesake is a solid follow up to Fable.  In this book, we see more of Fable’s journey as she navigates the intricacies of her world from betrayal, to family drama to figuring out her own relationship with West. The way the author builds this world is still something I appreciate because it’s refreshing not to fall into the usual fantasy tropes. The survival aspect still shines, and there’s a constant sense of danger that makes the book hard to put down.

If you enjoyed Fable, you’ll definitely like this one too.  I’m looking forward to seeing how the story wraps up in the third installment, though I may read the prequel "Saint" first.
