pickThis book was bonkers in the best way!
The Wisteria Society is home to the best female pirates and thieves England can boast. When somebody starts stealing their flying houses, it is up to Cecelia to save them all.
Oh, and Cecelia is also dodging an assassin hired by another Wisteria Society member, kidnap attempts by the crown, an annoying wannabe pirate, and her mad father with aspirations to be Lord Byron.

I‘m still working on January‘s #BookSpin but that hasn‘t stopped me from making my list for February. I‘m trying to keep the chunksters at bay so my new to list tiles are both less than 600 pages. As always thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting.
pickI really enjoyed this retelling of Peter Pan! I'm really not a fan of the original story, but for some reason, love almost any retelling of it that I can get my hands on 😂 This one was really creative! On to the sequel!

I've finally finished book 2 @curiouserandcurioser it is interesting how this book is classed as the finale yet there are 2 more books to go 🤔 I probably won't start this one until weekend. Email me your views when ready my friend. #peterpan #retelling #magic #pixie #tinkerbell #neverland
Oh my gosh, I gave the tagged book to one of my students & I got this update from her dad (also a family friend) tonight. 🥺 This kid never reads. Literally never, but the protagonist reminded me so much of her that I thought I'd give it a shot. It just goes to show that kids don't hate reading, they just need to find the right book!
That's me set for tea! self made cake in a mug with vanilla ice cream! Hubby is really taking care of me while I'm self isolating in the bedroom. I have COVID since yesterday.
pickThis book follows the first English pirates to cross the Darian Passage (on foot), which is the dividing line between North and South America, mainly from pirate Basil Ringrose‘s diary and the diaries of others. They travel the length of South America and are the first to navigate around Cape Horn, fighting the Spanish, hunger, thirst, and the elements. I learned so much from reading this book, not the least that pirates wrote detailed ⬇️
pickOnly one confirmed pirate ship had been found when two galleon hunters were lured away from certain treasure from a sunken Spanish ship to look for a pirate ship off an island in the #DominicanRepublic. Based on certain sources they were supposed to find it in a specific location and yet it wasn‘t there. Years of research, tenacity, & ingenuity landed them the big prize. This an excellent book, well written and researched. Highly recommended. ⬇️
