Let's just say someone was utterly speechless and didn't expect the book to end at all.
I loved this so much , It's going to be my favourite book of the year ( or one of them) because I love it that much.

I was reading as one does when they pick up a book and all of a sudden the book ended , but it ended just how it began , in an entirely beautiful manner altogether.

The world building and the world generally was something that I'd never had the chance to read about before . But : Sea Horses ? Races ? Death + destruction ? tragic characters ? Sean Kendrick ? Count me in.

People/Horses:

PUCK : Her name is in fact not Puck , it is Kate , but people who know her that call her it , so shall I because I have just read her whole story about her racing. She was the first girl to races in the races. Yes no one really likes the female kind on the beach in the middle of November because the Scorpio Races are considered a man's sport , and with all the death and similiar things that occur during it I can totally see why , but this aside , because she needs the money , she races. She raced very well .

DOVE: This happens to be Puck's horse , she's a white island pony that she races and is defnitely in love with Corr which would make sense too.

SEAN : Kendrick , Sean Kendrick. He's won the races 4 times in a row and has a capill usice ( excuse the spelling , but that means water-horse) , is mysterious and loves Corr and the beach and the Sky and racing and of course his blue jacket of his. He is wonderful , although may appear to look intimidating as I've learned from Puck. Nonetheless , he is beautiful.

CORR: My favourite horse of all ( sorry Dove) , and he is most definitely in love with Dove too ( It's very hard for water horses to settle down as it were) and he's red , feisty , but loves Sean with all his heart and never leaves his side. Oh and he made me cry , just as Sean did.

Overall , if you haven't read this :
1) what are you doing ? what are you reading instead of this book?
2) It will make you want to live in Thisby ( Its fictional but still)
3) Sean Kendrick. ( and all the other characters too shh)
4) Please pick it up !!

Its my favourite thing.
