A fun read! I think I am still reeling from it all- It is possibly the most zany book I have ever read and asks a lot of the reader to take in stride, but it's whimsical and fun and doesn't take itself too seriously. I still don't think I really understood most of the book- there was a lot happening at all times and I do think the book lacks a bit of focus, but I still had a lot of fun reading. May revisit this one later!

Listened to the audiobook for this one to have it finished in time for a bookclub! Wasn’t the best book I’ve ever read, but it was fun time! The narrator made the characters fun and exciting, and the whole book had a goofy, whimsical vibe. The blot was kind of confusing though, so it was really more of a 3.5, but not confusing enough to be a 3.

Too predictable and felt like it was dragging on. Could have been shorter.

Bonkers fast paced fantasy action-romance.

Victorian era UK rigidity meets Howl's Moving Castle but, make it pirates. Light spice.

Prose is very Pride and Prejudice and Zombies adjacent. Very fun and lots of action.

Quirky story of lady pirates who travel via flying houses. Enemies to lovers, lots of sarcasm and banter between characters.
