Pirate Ship Book Tag

Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JObmMV2yyfE 1. Name your ship-- Pick a book title for your fearsome vessel?  Queen of Shadows.  Having trouble reading the book itself, but I think its a cool title. 2. Pick your flag-- Choose a creature or monster to put on your flag?  The sea serpent from Siege and Storm, the second book in The Grisha trilogy.  I admit its not my favorite series, but the different animals that Alina has to find are really cool. 3. The first mate--They're your second in command? Hermione Granger from Harry Potter.  She's smart, loyal, and brave. 4. The Navigator--There the character that guides your ship across the seas? Cress from The Lunar Chronicles.  Living in a satellite most of her life has allowed her to be good at reading the stars. 5. The raiding crew-- Choose two characters to raid ships and do the fighting for you? 1. Lilah Bard from Shades of Magic trilogy 2. Kvothe from The King Killer Chronicles.  Both are clever, good at thievery,
