The Ship of Shadows was a very sweet middle grade novel about pirates and friendship. I was really glad to get on board on this adventure, with all those amazing girls. I'd really recommend it to anyone!

A fun and fast paced pirate adventure that I needed. I want to crew the Ship of Shadows. ^_^

This book is stunning. I absolutely loved it and dived headfirst into the magical world of Aleja and the crew of the Ship of Shadows.

The characters are so well written and I love that they are all badass women,especially because they are so well rounded. I particularly relate to Aleja because I too love reading all about adventures and listing after one of my own.

The plot too is well paced and it never felt like it was lagging or moving too quickly. It was just right, like the lore for the magic used which can be quite difficult to perfect but this book manages it perfectly.

I found it hard to put down and I look forward to seeing what is in store for the crew of the Ship of Shadows.

I absolutely loved these pirate-y vibes from this book! It was an amazing plot, and overall just a really great middle-grade.

Nothing was happening. It was so slow and there were chapters and chapters where literally nothing progressed. The premise seems like it'd be pacey and action packed, but it wasn't at all, and it's not like we were even getting much in the way of character development either because all of that was superficial stuff as well. Dare I say it...it was boring!
