What Did I Think? 🤔

All aboard the River Queen! This is a fun and quirky adventure and I enjoyed everything about it. I especially liked the variety of characters that really make the story unique, especially Anola, the fun, adventurous and kind of naive showboat girl with her ability to always look on the bright side and of course, poor Emmett, the account who finds himself attacked by pirates and thrown overboard his own ship! Overall, the book has it all, mystery, romance, pirates and a dash of danger/suspense! I was given this book in exchange for my honest review – all opinions are my own
