2.5âď¸.5đśď¸ (was going to give it a .25đśď¸ if not for one sex scene thrown in at the end, which is literally only 2 pages)
I really hate to give this a bad review bc itâs not like I hated it. I didnât dislike it for the same reasons I did Eloiseâs book. But after reading the last book, which I surprisingly really liked, this one fell flat. When I read the description about the FMC being kidnapped by pirates, I was ready for adventure, some steamy tension between Andrew and poppy since they literally shared his captainâs quarters and there was only one bed and he TIED her to it!! But no. The most tension they had was over completing a freaking puzzle. I had such high hopes for poppyâs character being so intelligent, inquisitive, and having a thirst for knowledge (as I can really relate), and I was expecting her to take some time to read through Andrewâs library on the ship, maybe ask him to teach her astronomy since they shared interest about the stars. But no, they only shared one kind of romantic night on deck, and then it was over. They had all of this forced proximity, one bed, shared curiosity about the world, and no moves were made! What a waste. She also started out as such a strong, spitfire character, then kind of morphed into this meek and agreeable woman. She was like well I guess since I canât escape I may as well make the best of itđ¤ˇđťââď¸ HUH?! She gets Stockholm syndromed so badly. The worst part is I think if Andrew had come clean about who he was from the beginning, poppy wouldâve understood, and kept his secret.
Also, why did the author name a main character of this book Billy when Billie bridgerton is mentioned also? This was completely unnecessary and really confusing for audiobook listeners.
Ch 16 with its long descriptions of Lisbon reeeally dragged on. I fell asleep several times during these middle chapters. This book could be been 100 pages less I think. The whole secondkidnapping plot seemed rushed and lazy. It was just meant as a plot device to push Andrew and poppy together, but they were already falling in love! I really donât think it was necessary. Iâve read othersâ complaints about this as well but I was hoping it wasnât true: Andrewâs character between book 1 and this book is starkly different. He briefly mentions that his family only thinks of him as a jokester but baby that was your whole personality in the first book? I know the stories are a few years apart but I wouldnât think this would be enough to change his humor. I was expecting some A+ flirting and banter but we really didnât get it. Iâd say we got more of that from Edwardâs book. Overall, if youâre expecting anything close to will and elizabeth from pirates of the Caribbean, Iâd skip this one. Rosalyn landor was an amazing narrator as always though. I wonât be rereading.
