kharlan3's review against another edition

(ace, adventure, fantasy, YA, regency). This book made me laugh aloud multiple times, which is rare. I was so scared Felicity was gonna fall in love and not be ace, she didn’t (thank goodness). I liked her self discovery journey a lot, and her “even feminine girls are cool and strong and amazing” arc even more. There was a smidge more gender essentialist language (women can handle blood because periods) than I would have liked, but it felt era-realistic.

A solid installment in a series that’s a lot of fun - I didn’t get as bogged down in anachronisms as I did in the first book, and it was very gratifying to check back in with Monty and Percy. There are some really insightful conversations between the characters about internalized misogyny and policing femininity that still feel totally in character and doesn’t get in the way of a very fun pirate adventure and compelling mystery.
