I was a little hesitant to start this book.
I enjoyed the first in the series, for the most part. I didn't love it, but I liked it enough, especially Monty and Percy, who are adorable together.
And then I looked forward to the second, because yay a good heroine, but I had trouble with Felicity as a lead, though I did like Johanna. Mixed feelings on Sim.
But almost every trilogy I've read where it continues to change perspective, I enjoy the first and then each subsequent installment I like a little less...
So imagine my surprise when this one ended up being my favorite of the lot!
Poor Adrian is so adorkable, and I related - perhaps a bit too well - to his many anxieties, though mine are not as crippling as this poor guys. I enjoyed seeing Monty again, and even Felicity. (Felicity is always fine as a secondary character, I just had trouble with her as the main, but I've liked her well enough in the other books.)
My only real complaint is not enough Percy! (And I would've liked to have known Lou a bit more.)
It was definitely nice to do another whirlwind world adventure, and to meet up briefly with various characters from the first two books along the way. It was nice to see how people had grown and changed, and how they hadn't.
The best part of the story, for me, though, was watchingthe siblings, especially Adrian and Monty, learn to trust and like each other along the way. Monty had a lot of understandable feelings and emotions, but once he was able to realize that Adrian was not his parents, things started to progress.
I also liked the somewhat ambiguous nature of the spyglass and ghost ship, even though I'm not always a fan of such.I often prefer a clear answer as to whether it's real or not, but I felt like the uncertainty actually worked in this story, where it doesn't always work in others.
Overall, a worthy and wonderful conclusion to the adventures of the Montague Siblings - though I would've be adverse to another story with these three in the future (with more Percy).

I’m gonna be honest, this was the kind of book where I just had so much fun I don’t really care about if it was good or not. Such a lovely story, I honestly wasn’t expecting much but was immediately hooked. I think I had forgotten Lee’s absolutely endearing way of writing but was immediately reminded, and then I just had a blast through the entire book. The characters and relationships really are the heart and soul of this series, and I will always enjoy getting to follow them.
