My Thoughts

This was an interesting book. I’m not the fondest of boats and the like so it wasn’t my favorite setting. However, the islands were interesting. This book reminded me of Alice in Wonderland. Not my favorite but a good read none the less.

Recommendation

My least favorite of the books thus far but still worth reading.
