FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC!!! This book was incredible! I just love how historical figures are brought into the story to make it all the more entertaining, and it brings in excitement for the best book at the end, which is always wonderful. FIVE STARS

I am...not entirely sure what just happened?

I have been waiting for this book for ages and I feel just kind of...? ?!

Audrey Rose has never annoyed me so much, and I know she really grinds the gears of a lot of people but holy shit? This book is 430 pages and she spent 350 of the moon-eyed over some dude she just met who gives her the heebie geebies but yo. He's got dimples, so he's a lot less stabby than anyone on board, I guess?

But is he Thomas?

No.

Thomas spends the majority of this novel in mention, and there's such a severe lack of him that Audrey Rose becomes almost unbearable. This girl has faced a hell of a lot in recent months, I get it. But oh my god. Knowing what we know from the first two books, any sort of perception this girl has about anything is shut off like a light switch as soon as she sets foot on the boat.

I really love this series, I genuinely truly do. But this book was such a let-down compared to the first two that it pains me to say that my 5-Star hopeful for the year is reduced all the way down to a 3 stars. All's I gotta say is I just hope the fourth one brings out the same finesse and common sense Audrey Rose this book severely lacks.

Mar. 2018-

WE HAVE A COVER AND SHE'S STUNNING.

I'm ready for this book to save my entire 2018.

I almost threw the book across the room at particularly annoying parts but it was delightful and I would recommend. I don't even feel like I can critique it because it's just my absolute favorite book ever. I cannot wait for the fourth book, but also dismay its potential release because I do not want this series to ever end. Did I mention I love this series? Because I love this series.

This book felt like reading an entirely different Audrey Rose. Her character development felt completely undone in some scenes. Her motivations didn’t make sense at times and I just couldn’t connect with her in the same way. I still love Thomas and the setting is amazing in this book but something felt off.
