To kick off, I'd just like to state for the record that I have come to terms with the fact that I have an absolute weakness for any character that says something along the lines of "I'm not a pirate, I'm a privateer." Seriously, it's happened at least four times now.
I loved this book! Monty was such a fun narrator and the plot was interesting and educational! I probably read the description of this book at least three separate times before I actually decided that it would be something worth trying, and I'm so glad I finally did!
I LOVED Felicity and I got SO happy when I found out after I finished this that she's getting her very own book in a few months! I am VERY excited to see how she takes to Piracy and where Scipio plays into all of that... :)
Definitely one of my faves of the year so far!
