Fable
Things I liked:
- There isn't a single character in this book that I did not like. They all were really fun and different enough from each other that they all served the story well. The fact that each character has a purpose and a role really helped that. Sometimes in books that have a lot of characters is that some of them feel redundant. But that is not the case in this book.
- I liked that the author didn't shove the romance between West and Fable in my face. Sometimes that kind of thing works with a story, but this story defiantly benefitted from a more understated love arch. Because the author didn't shove all the romance/angst at me in one go I thought the relationship between Fable and West played out really well.
Things I didn't like:
- The only thing I wish we saw was a different point of view. I liked reading everything from Fables POW, but I think it would have given some dimension to hear from other people. I hope we see that in the next book, considering that Fable is now a captive of Zola.
Overall:
- This book was really fun to read! I haven't read any pirate books before, so this was a new fun thing for me. The book was super easy to read, and had a great pace throughout. It didn't have any extra filler that some books have. It was quick, to the point, and a great book overall. The characters were fun and really were all pretty great. The romance wasn't the typical will they won't they drawn out for 500 pages, and I really liked that. The story as a whole was fun and really kept my attention for the whole story. It was a nice change of pace after the last book I read dragged on for over 500 pages with nothing happening for most of it. Thanks to the cliff hanger in this book I can't wait to read the next one!
- Rating: 4.5/5
