It's hard to put a finger on why I don't love these books. It has lots of exciting magical creatures and sailing ships, but something about the romances seems to be falling short. I LOVE the idea of Lizzie and Maeve, but there felt like a bit of a gap from the cutesy angst in the beginning, to suddenly being crazy in love. I needed that relationship to build more.

I also feel like there needs to be more world building, more excitement? I dont' quite know, I just leave these books feeling like I wanted more.

Thank you to the publisher for providing a copy of the book.
