Title: I absolutely loved Tricia Levenseller’s DAUGHTER OF THE PIRATE KING
Review: I absolutely loved Tricia Levenseller’s DAUGHTER OF THE PIRATE KING. It’s action packed, with plenty of adventure, a tough heroine, the best kind of romance, magic and so much more. This is one book that had me re-reading right after I had finished reading it for the first time.This is the book I’ve been waiting on. With plenty of wit, humor, sarcasm, and the right amount of sizzling character chemistry, I devoured this book in one sitting. The writing is awesome. It’s the kind of writing that ensnares you, and leaves you wanting more. I absolutely loved all this story gave me. From the characters, to the high seas, to the dangers, and romance. It’s a layered story that’s pealed back little at a time, giving you enough to keep you reading. It wouldn’t be a pirate story without fight scenes, romance, and a few twists. I love that there was the right amount of humor, which off sets a lot of the gore. Oh those twists are so good too. I didn’t see two of those coming. I love the element of surprise Levenseller adds to the story when it comes to a certain revelation. Keeping it spoiler free….I love a snarky character, and Alsoa has the mouth of a pirate (without the swearing), and the pose of a Princess. It’s the perfect combination. What I loved the most about her, is she doesn’t make excuses or apologize for who she is. She is the Pirate King’s daughter, but she’s her own person. She’s someone who can take care of herself, but knows when to ask for help. She’s intelligent, witty, sarcastic and is someone who takes her of her own, as well herself. I loved watching her in action, as well as getting to know her. Her has this fierce inner as well as outer strength, and unshakable courage, that I loved. She keeps her head in the game no matter what is going on. He is her perfect counterpart is Riden.I need more of Alosa and Riden! Their romance is my favorite kind. I love the banter between these two. They have this on going battle of wits and wills. It’s so well written. While on the surface it may seem like they’re trying to outsmart the other, there’s really much more going on. They definitely have a character chemistry that sizzles. It’s that ‘much more going’ I loved watching unfold as the story goes along. These two are the perfect match. There’s so much more than meets the eye with each of them. It’s so much fun watching these two try to best the other. I like that they don’t dish out what they can’t handle. Boy do they know how to ruffle each other’s feathers, as well as how to leave each other breathless.Character wise, I really enjoyed the variety of characters in this story. There’s the ones you love, ones you enjoy getting to know, and the ones you utterly despise. It’s like the best of the best, and the worst of the worst of the pirating world. It’s interesting to see how they all mesh together. The hierarchy on the pirate ships is fascinating. I enjoyed getting to see how it all works. I really enjoyed that the majority of this setting is on the pirate ships. The ships are described in great detail, making it incredibly easy to visualize.This book was awesome! It’s my kind of book. It has the perfect combination of romance, unforgettable characters, and of course plenty of action and danger on the high seas. This is a book that will be sitting on my favorites shelf. If this is Levenseller’s debut, I can’t wait to read her sequel. This book will be out tomorrow, and I highly recommend picking it up. It will definitely be among my favorite reads of 2017.

Title: A compelling and entertaining adventure that makes me want to search for more treasure in the second book!
Review: I really enjoyed this story, though it was a bit more adult than young adult in some aspects (see common sense warning below). The main character, Alosa, is a feisty, red-headed, hardened pirate, raised and trained by the Pirate King himself to be fierce and strong with special skills. She is seventeen and has endured a lot to become whatever her father has pushed her to be, just wanting his approval. She captains her own crew of mostly female pirates with exceptional skills. She has been sent on a mission by the Pirate King to be taken captive on another pirate lord’s ship in order to find a piece of an ancient treasure map that will lead to a horde of treasure. The Pirate King wants that treasure to secure his dominion over the ocean (and land in some ways). Alosa wants the treasure to please her father, but also to prove her worth as his heir, someday to become the Pirate Queen.Although Alosa is intentionally captured and can reveal her skills at any time to escape, she stays on board as a prisoner to search for the piece of map. But she didn’t expect that the captain and his brother, the first mate, were intentionally seeking her to hold for ransom to the Pirate King and make a name for themselves. The captain is fierce and short-tempered, and could easily succumb to a darker side of himself, much like his father, without the support and watchful eye of his brother, Riden. Riden is more considerate and intelligent than his brother, and doesn’t really seem to like being a pirate, but he won’t leave his brother to become like their father. So Riden does his best to go forward with his brother’s plan by questioning and gaining the trust of their prisoner, while also protecting her from the captain’s temper.Due to their regular encounters of interrogation, Alosa and Rider become almost like friends. They are both trying to read each other for information without giving away their own secrets, and they banter back and forth quite a bit. Meanwhile, Alosa sneaks out of her cell every night to search the ship for the map, but keeps returning to the brig empty-handed. By the time they near the place where they are to meet with the Pirate King to exchange his daughter for ransom, Alosa is desperate to accomplish her mission and escape, before these pirates learn more of her secrets and special abilities.But she is getting dangerously close, almost intimate, with Riden through their interactions, both interrogation and protection from his brother’s cruelty and impatience. He wants to protect his brother from the darkness inside of him, but also protect this pirate girl who seems so confident and capable and resilient. The more he discovers about her, the more he needs to solve this puzzle that is the Pirate King’s daughter. This leads to all kinds of internal conflict for both Riden and Alosa, and they’re forced to trust and rely on each other to get out of several predicaments before the conclusion of this adventure. It made me laugh and squirm, gave me sympathy for the characters, and got me all caught up in their tragic upbringings as children of pirates just trying to survive and earn approval and acceptance. Overall, a very fun and exciting read that kept me compelled until the end and wanting to search for more treasure in the second book.I also read the free bonus chapter from the author, the first chapter of the book from Riden’s perspective. It was totally worth having that extra information, and really fun to replay that scene from Riden’s viewpoint. Go check it out on her website!Common sense: To forewarn parents of younger readers, this is a story about ruthless pirates. As you can imagine, there is some swearing, drinking, and several fight scenes with guns and swords. The pirates kill people without remorse or even wincing. There are also many comments about the things male pirates do with women when they get to visit land, and a few things attempted on the main character and crude references, being the only female aboard a ship of male pirates for an extended period of time. There are a few frisky encounters described between Alosa and Riden as well, including when she is trying to seduce the other crew members to get what she wants, though nothing happens past removing some clothing. I would suggest these things are too much for younger imaginations to absorb, so keep it to high school level and up. This is a young adult series, after all.

Title: Extremely funny
Review: I picked this up on a whim, thinking that it sounded interesting. I was not prepared for what I was getting into. The story is really good from beginning to end,and incredibly funny. Just love the main character. She is a strange one, and I mean that in an intriguing and captivating way.

Title: Too many plot holes
Review: I only made it halfway through before I just couldn’t read any more. The premise of the story is good, and for the most part, the writing is good. But, and I am trying not to give anything away here, so… how can someone be so clever and adept but still so stupid?! The FMC talks about all her training, has plans and backup plans, and yet simple things throw her off. Then, when everything you have read up to a certain point says that once this happens, FMC is going to do this, she does the opposite, and we have more drama. Now I understand we want to keep readers entertained and wanting more but if you are writing about a bird and when this bird wants to leave it jumps in a lake and tries to swim away instead of flying then you may want to rethink your bird…

Review: Yet again, another book from tiktok that I had to get. I saw this mentioned a few times on tiktok back in January but when I searched for the book on Amazon, I couldn’t find it anywhere for kindle and apparently all paperbacks were sold out. I kept looking and was getting no where Everytime I searched the title. I even back to eBay to get the paperbacks but that proved fruitless as well. Then the other night, something told me to check Amazon again and tada, this book and it’s sequel were finally on Amazon in kindle edition. And let me tell you, the wait was worth it!!!The writing. The plot. The characters. *chefs kiss* it has everything you could ever want. I loved the storyline of the main female character not being a helpless damsel in distress. She was a strong fierce character who didn’t need a man to save her because she could do it all herself. The chemistry between her and Riden had me torn between wanting them to kiss or wanting them to continue their constant hilarious bickering. I figured out two of the twists before they even happened because you just knew it was going to come. But even so, that didn’t bother me and I still think this is one of the best young adult books written. And I can’t wait to get started on the second one later.My own sadness is tiktok said this book was spicy. But no, there was no spice 🙁

Review: J’ai juste adoré ! Contrairement aux avis que j’ai pu voir passer, Alosa ne m’a pas paru détestable. Elle a un sale caractère et elle est, comment dire… assez impitoyable, mais en même temps quand elle profère une menace c’est rarement des paroles en l’air ! Elle n’est pas une grande gueule, elle ne fait pas qu’aboyer, elle mord ! J’ai adoré son caractère et son sarcasme. L’histoire en elle même est géniale et les personnages attachants. Vraiment, un coup de coeur !
