I just love the concept and the characters in this book! I reread it at least once a year! The “magic“ is pretty unique and I love that the romance is more of a subplot.

Nix was likable main character and it was easy to relate to her. I didn't love the romance. It didn't have a big role in this book but I still wasn't a fan of it.
This had really unique atmosphere and setting felt vivid.
The writing was a bit flowery, sometimes I really liked it but sometimes I felt it tiresome.
The plot itself was solid and fast-pacing, but I felt that this still dragged at some points.

It was the kind of August day that hinted at monsoons, and the year was 1774, though not for very much longer. I was in the crowded bazaar of a nearly historical version of Calcutta, where my father had abandoned me.

I think this book could have been a bit better. I‘ve had it on and off my TBR for a few years now.
It‘s about Nix who is a pirate, lives on a pirate ship and then can travel to different worlds and time periods if they have a map. Set mostly on Hawaii.
I picked this up for #pop22 because it‘s on a list for Pacific Islander authors.

Bailed on Radium Girls and lined up a new ebook. I hope it‘s lightweight and engaging because I feel a reading slump coming on.
I loved this creative YA fantasy adventure mystery duology. #LetterG #alphabetgame @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
It‘s High Five Day today!
And low and behold one of the characters wants a high five!
Love this book; re-reading it for book club in a couple weeks!
“Well, Nixie? Where are we going next?”

I love love love this duology! Nix is very brave when she confronts her past and the passing of her mother. She makes sacrifices which go against her heart‘s desire. Beautifully written.
It's been a hot minute since I've been here, but I'm glad this little community exists. :) Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe!
This book is pretty interesting, but hoping to get through a hefty chunk on this gloomy Saturday and have a better opinion. Has anyone else read this one?

Some #audiocrossstitching this evening and I finished the tagged book. I liked the book but I think I was expecting a little something more from it. I‘m also very romance tired at the moment so that aspect of the book just annoyed me more than anything else. The adventure was good though. So yeah, liked it but didn‘t love it.
I did some #audiocrossstitching this evening and managed to finish my current small project! I love how the book and cross stitch match each other (I may be having a slight pirate/sailing phase, again)🌊⛵️

Seven books that left a deep impression on me and changed me.
Another deep point of view novel. The story is just fantastic, going to different time periods using a map, and everything drawn on the map comes to life or is realized in that reality. It‘s amazing; highly recommend the duology!

I really enjoyed the concept behind this book. The mythical details included were great and fit in naturally. I wanted a bit more clarity on certain timelines and the way things fit together in the end. That said, I truly enjoyed reading this book and am excited to see where things go in the second book.
A traveler and island gals dream wrapped into an adventure-packed story of love, romance, family, folklore, and mischief. Fingers crossed that the author writes many more delicious tales. And pirates...did I mention pirates???
I'm going on a four-day vacation. Am I taking enough books?
No better way to kick off what promises to be a fun-filled weekend than with sprinkle ice cream cones! 🍦🤩 Also hoping to finish the tagged book for #readingusa2019 #Hawaii (Author)
Enjoyable young adult fantasy - book 1 so will need to get the sequel. The main character is trying to work on the relationship she has with her father who is trying to manipulate time to prevent/reverse her mother‘s death.

I liked it but I wish there would have been more actual time travelling. For the most part, the entire book took place in one location. Still going to go for book 2 to find out what's really up on that love triangle though. For a full review, check out my blog papertimemachines.blogspot.com
A good adventure! Nice world building.
Hoopla is kind of trash as an app, but it has books that Overdrive/Libby doesn't! 🤷
Enjoying this! It's a good follow up to Michelle Obama, as it's so entirely different. There no way it can even try to compete!
Ga! I still love this book. Time traveling pirates trying to pull a heist in Hawaii is like an A+ premise. I LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEE these characters, the dramas, the romances, the setting. I really love the historical details thrown in about Hawaii and China which I feel like is pretty under done in YA.
Getting in a chapter or two before work. I haven't read this book in a while but I remember absolutely loving it
Part 2 of Jolabokaflod with @biblio_ginger ... she spoils me! We both managed to buy the same book for each other, 'The Girl From Everywhere'. Do I hear a sister book club pick in our future? #bookflood #bookhaul #sistersandbooks
Book #selfie! Getting close to the end of this one. Might just reach 20 books before 2019!!!

Quirky little tale about time travel with enjoyable characters. Not jaw-dropping, or thought-provoking, but a fun little read.
Nix and her father live on a magical ship that can take them anywhere in time or place, as long as they have a map and they believe the map will take them there. Nix‘s Dad is an opium addict on a quest that will take him back to Nix‘s mother, before she died in childbirth. Nix doesn‘t know how to feel about this, as she may cease to exist if her father gets his heart‘s desire.
The writing was fine, but time travel books tend to leave me cold.
I really enjoyed this book! It was really good and i want to continue the series! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book took me a while to finish reading. But it was worth it in the end. Throughout though I had forgotten some parts since it took me so long to read, but overall it was a good story. I would try to reread it again to try to get a better since of the story. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #TheGirlFromEverywhere #HeidiHeilig #book #books #read #bookrecommendation #bookrecommendations #bookreport #bookreview #bookriot #booktattoo #booktree #bookthief #booktopia 💝💝
