bebocarrick 's review for:
Running Close to the Wind
by Alexandra Rowland
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me an ARC of this audiobook for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
Oh my goodness, this was such an incredibly fun book! I came for the queer pirates and stayed for the lovable characters and utter hilarity! I truly can't remember the last time I laughed so hard at a book. I also adored the cool little details of the world, such as the island-sized turtles, the glowing blue dogs, the ghosts who needed sexy little dances to be appeased and leave people alone, and the herald cards with descriptions at the beginning of each chapter! All of these things added so much depth to an already endearing and wildly funny cast of characters.
The audiobook narration was incredible and added to the humor rife in this book. I really enjoyed how easy it was to tell which character was which from the accents and inflections the narrator added.
I am looking forward to seeing what comes next from this author and exploring her already established series!
