4.5 stars. Sea monster fighting pirates, part 2. I love how this author writes, I feel like much of this review will be repeating the first book’s review but I truly like how she makes me understand and care for every character, even the villain who has essentially trapped the main character. I also felt the main characters pain and pressure with the high stakes. This book wasn’t as thrilling as the first I will admit, it had a clearer flow and was more predictable. However, being exactly what I expected is not a bad thing as it is exactly what I wanted. I also love how the author used great vocabulary throughout this series and I think it is one of the many reasons I will definitely re read this series again in the future, as well as seek out her other books. Thanks again for this adventure.
