![]() ![]() ![]() The flying houses thing really got to me. I had a hard time getting into it at first, and the worldbuilding elements (since it’s fantasy, and alt-history to some extent) felt really under-developed and nonsensical to me for like half the book, but then something clicked and I ended up having a good time with it. They take no offense at thievery and assassination, but you must be proper about it, and heaven forbid we should talk about the body as if it actually exists! Anyway, the main character’s father is an insane pirate who hates women and who has decided to kill all the lady pirates, Queen Victoria, and take England under his rule, all because he thinks his father was Branwell Brontë (brother to Charlotte, Anne, and Emily), and he is angry about not being legitimate so he can like, cash in on that fame, or whatever. So this book is about lady pirates who fly their houses around England. ![]() I actually requested the sequel to this book on Netgalley and was approved before I realized it was the second book in a series, and while it didn’t seem like it would be necessary to read this one first since romance books can usually be read on their own, I thought I’d give it a shot anyway. ![]()
