A review by pomochi
The Pirate's Wish by Cassandra Rose Clarke

4.0

4 stars

Overall, this duology was a really fun, quick read that I was able to marathon in a couple days. I really enjoyed reading about the characters, but I found that Ananna was really annoying for me in the beginning of this novel, but she did eventually win me back at the end, and I liked her character again. I thought that in the beginning, Ananna made a lot of decisions that were driven by impulse to annoy Naji, and she would make decisions and then feel guilty about it, but she wouldn't apoplogizr or anything. I also had some trouble picturing the manticore, and the world building wasn't as strong as I would've liked it, but this duology was super entertaining and I would recommend it if you want to fly through a series with lots of action and awesome characters. It's truly a shame that the publishing house for this duology went out of business, but I will definitely be picking up more of Cassandra's works in the future!

(Also, I would love for a seque , or even just a novella about what happens after The Pirate's Wish!! That would be awesomeeeee :D)
