Why read it?

1 author picked Pirates of Aletharia as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A fun enemies-to-lovers story with some well-defined characters and an interesting world. Neither Emilia nor Maria trust each other a lick, and have good cause for it, but Maria wants Emilia, as crew member, lover, and possession.

I enjoyed seeing the two warring with their feelings for each other and their mutual distrust as they struggled to be willing to so much as tolerate the other. 

From Genevieve's list on sapphic speculative fiction.
