I just don't really think this series was for me. I don't want to tear it apart because I know a lot of people did like it, but it was sort of just okay for me. Honestly I didn't really like reading it. I got through it though and surprised myself, but I would NOT read it again. First of all, Etta's reliance on finding Nicholas and vice versus just got to me. Like, they've only known each other for an extremely short time period. Any connections that they could've made on the month-long ship voyage in book one were pretty much skipped over so it feels like there wasn't any foundation for their romantic relationship to begin with. Second, Etta goes from scared kid to suddenly attempting to be a BA with her knowledge. Like, I get finding strength in battle, but going from freaked out kid to overly-confident fighter who enjoys spouting one-liners was too weird for me. The only thing I actually enjoyed about this book was Etta's dad, Henry. I thought he was a really good character and like how he interacted with his long-lost kid. Anyways, I wouldn't say I particularly enjoyed it, but that's just my opinion.
