Loveable characters: Complicated

No denying this book is quintessential piratey but it’s the least favorite of the trio of pirate books i recently read. So much negotiating and double crossing, I kind of lost the plot a little. I’m here for the swashbuckling, etc. Also, there’s a lot more nuance to Long John Silver than I remember, he’s not all bad in this story!
