Hey
everyone and welcome back to my blog! This week I will be
participating in Waiting on Wednesday. WoW is a weekly meme hosted by
Jill @ Breaking the Spine. Every week we showcase upcoming releases that
we are excited about. Tressa @ Wishful Endings has recently taken lead in this meme, considering Jill hasn't been posting on for a while. Learn more here!This week I chose Daughter of the Pirate King!
A 17-year-old pirate captain intentionally allows herself to get captured by enemy pirates in this thrilling YA adventure.
Sent on a mission to retrieve an ancient hidden map—the key to a legendary treasure trove—seventeen-year-old pirate captain Alosa deliberately allows herself to be captured by her enemies, giving her the perfect opportunity to search their ship.
More than a match for the ruthless pirate crew, Alosa has only one thing standing between her and the map: her captor, the unexpectedly clever and unfairly attractive first mate, Riden. But not to worry, for Alosa has a few tricks up her sleeve, and no lone pirate can stop the Daughter of the Pirate King.
Debut author Tricia Levenseller blends action, adventure, romance, and a little bit of magic into a thrilling YA pirate tale.
I don't remember the last time I started and finished a YA about pirates, or if I even have! I also love the thought that Alosa let herself get captured, and she always has something up her sleeve. She seems like such a badass! The romance sounds completely wonderful as well, and I LOVE my romance. Also, today is the day that this book releases! So hopefully very soon I will pick this up from my local library. :)
Are you looking forward to Daughter of the Pirate King? If you've already read it, what did you think?
Thanks so much for stopping by and I'll see you soon with another post!
Happy Reading!

Great minds think alike! What are some books with pirates you'd recommend? The only YA one I can think of it Passenger by Alexandra Bracken.
DeleteI liked this book a lot! It's fun, adventurous, clever, and involves a cute romance. I really hope there is more romance in book two though. ;) I hope you enjoy this book when you get the chance to read it, Genni!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week. =)
