Jacky Faber / Bloody Jack #2
by L.A. Meyer
Hennepin County Library paperback 488 pages
genre - YA historical fiction / adventure
Overall, I really enjoyed it.
Didn't like that the Reverend Mather was so evil, but it worked for the story. Very creepy!
Also didn't love the voodoo / gris-gris charm from Mam'selle . . . but I love that she came to Jacky's rescue twice and Jacky rescued her.
Hard to put it down! I wanted to see what would happen.
Loved that she could successfully move in different spheres - with sailors, servants, ladies, musicians, jockeys . . .
Loved her friendships with Amy and with the serving girls.
Clarisse, Gully, and the Constable (and even Randall) added to the bad guy challenges for Jacky.
Now she's off on a new adventure, never having received any of Jaimy's letters. (Thank heavens that Davy got one of hers to him!)
