Oxen and wain-ropes would not bring me back again to that accursed island; and the worst dreams that ever I have are when I hear the surf booming about its coasts, or start upright in bed, with the sharp voice of Captain Flint still ringing in my ears: ‘Pieces of eight! pieces of eight!'

Had an errand to run, but now that that‘s done, it‘s time for a treat at Panera and some more reading 📖
pickI cannot even begin to describe the experience of reading this book. It's literally like falling into the pages headfirst and living within the words. I'm not the least bit interested in hurrying through this series. I've reached my yearly book goal. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy this trilogy and I don't care to rush through even one page. 5 stars and above. Am I into pirates and ships normally? No. But I love this. What great writing.

Aletheia! What a fun box to open. I squealed unwrapping each gift. The books are perfect. The grimoire is unbelievably cool. Love love love the salt and pepper shakers although I don‘t want to muck them up for their intended purpose. The mug, the socks, stickers and candy make it all a box of yummy goodness! Thank you so much! 🧡🖤🧡
