vero_lee's review against another edition

A+ for effort. unfortunately, this isn’t my cup of tea. I couldn’t even bring myself to finish it.

 I highly recommend skipping the first five chapters, minimum.

I understand it’s a pirate story, so violence should be expected. However, I thought the amount of rape and torture was too much. Gratuitous, even.

STOCKHOLM SYNDROME TW: what i listed Spoilers all the way down Bruh. She’s a respected captain, but only on her ship. And that spans only a handful of chapters. Beyond that, she’s a captive with no rights. She endures a god awful amount of trauma, from beginning to end. 14 years old. Orphaned. Sexually assaulted and beaten by her 40-something fiancé because her mother practiced sold her so they could return to proper society. Her mother, who was portrayed to be cold and abusive, had a mini redemption arc until she literally threw herself off a cliff. I can’t even begin to describe what else transpires. it’s definitely a lot.
