*CONTAINS SPOILERS*I first picked up this book thinking, "Oh, it's a kids book about pirates! This should be a fun, light-hearted romp! Yay!" http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lfvdpv...And it was! I love adventures, and so I loved being on the pirate ship, getting to know all the pirates and their mischievous, fun-loving ways, and travelling all over the world, from Boston to Madagascar to India and back. There was humor, action, and suspense, which made it awesome. Josiah Black truly surprised me
