Figment Book Review: The Pirate King's Daughter (Book One) by Anande Sjoden

Summary
Because Ivy Morgan is an orphan, she lives in the attic of Miss Trevelyan's boarding school for girls. There are other orphans there, particularly the dear and charming Milo, but Ivy is the oldest so it falls to her to take charge.

One of the students, Lisette Mallerton, who has always been kind to the orphans, turns up dead one morning and Ivy, discovering the body, remarks on the girl's strange tattoo. She finds it so strange, in fact, that she copies it onto her own forearm.

When it turns out that Lisette was actually murdered by the headmistress, Miss Trevelyan herself, who suspects Ivy is a witness, Ivy must assume Lisette's identity to cover the woman's crimes and save herself and the orphans from that villainous fiend.

Ivy becomes caught up in a deadly feud between two brothers. The adventures that follow are beyond imagining.

What I liked
The writing is fantastic and poetic. It's easy to read and a pleasure, too.

The story is exciting and suspenseful from start to finish. A real page turner.

The characters are very well drawn, interesting, believable, and endearing.

What I didn't like
Nothing. The book is just about perfect.

Summary
