Having read the book now, I think the comparison to The Princess Bride holds up, specifically in the tone of the story (along with certain plot points). Unfortunately, I wasn’t as sold on the romance. But other aspects of the story were certainly compelling: the piracy, the spores and the sprouting, the secret king’s assassin, the zombie. Fun read overall.

Super cute story and an easy read. Dare I say it could have been longer? It's a pirate adventure story that reminds me of the bloody jack series but is less violent. I love the idea of an ocean that's not just water or lava. The big twist took me half the book to figure out, which is pretty satisfactory. The only thing that bugged me was the "I'm not like other girls" troupe is everywhere in this book and how many times "moons" was said.
Moderate: Classism, Blood, and Abandonment

Minor stuff there's sort of a war going on in the background with the witch and her country—a little bit of famine too.saltycoffee's review against another edition
