Fave Line: “I’ve been a fool. I let myself believe, even if it was just for a moment, that I was safe. That I’d found a home and a family.”

Genre: YA Fantasy

Not very often is the sequel better than the first book but this one blew my mind. I love how the protagonist is a strong character but also has someone who will selflessly protect her. I absolutely loved the ending too. Revenge is sweet!

This picks up right where Fable leaves off.
 
I enjoyed this, but still had such a hard time connecting to our characters. I wanted to know them, to ache with them, to feel their suffering. But it didnt quite get there.

It did make me want more pirate reads and to look at gems though.

We’re thrown right back into Fable’s journey with the crew of the Marigold; a fleeting moment of freedom shattered by schemes and unexpected family revelations. Fable continues to prove her worth, facing every challenge with resilience and daring to try. Her relationship with West deepens, bringing both vulnerability and love. As she uncovers more about herself and her family, we’re drawn in, compelled to see how it all ends.

kinda underwhelming second book. But still a good conclusion. It’s just so much slower and little to none character development.

❤️ West x Fable

Es rápido de leer, todo el tiempo los personajes están haciendo algo, ojala se tomen un descanso, porque me estresaron un poquito
Creo que solo no fueron apara mi estos libros
