BOOKENDS - Pirates!
Pirates! by Celia Rees wasn't quite what I expected from the slip jacket description, but it was a delightful swashbuckling piece of writing. Strong writing, fast-paced action, and (of course) pirates and plunder make this a great story following two girls who, in order to escape their none-too-pleasant lives (arranged marriage and slavery), decide to escape to the seas. Definitely recommended.
