Seafire really blew me away. I never knew I needed an all-female crew of sassy pirates in my life until now. I loved each and every one of Parker’s characters and the story blew me away. The crew of the Mors Navis truly believe in sisterhood and they fight tooth and nail for what they think is right. Seafire was fast paced and tight, and I loved the fact that the main focus of the book was the sisterhood of the crew, not the romance between Caledonia and Oran.

That being said, I did feel like the romance was shoved in there, and I would have been really fine without the romance. The writing was addictive and I didn’t want to put it down. The book had a lot of heartwarming and emotional scenes and I would totally die for any of those girls.

One other complaint I have is that the book wasn’t gay enough. It’s hinted that two side characters are in a relationship but never confirmed. Is it too much to ask for a kickass feminist story that doesn’t shy away from gay characters?

Overall this book is fantastic and I cannot wait for the rest of the series.
