I loved the foreshadowing because they did not give any spoilers. They just helped me anticipate the end of everything. I think I will just go ahead and call it a perfect foreshadowing

The comments were really interesting to me and gave me insight on how to spot these things in the book. I read a few things and didn't notice some of these things until now. Keep sharing!Anne Lucas wrote: ↑11 Apr 2022, 00:11Nothing actually was too predictable for me in this book. But, I have to admit I kept brainstorming the clues throughout. And the only thing I will say about the father-daughter relationship is that I loved the way this turned out to be.Everydayadventure15 wrote: ↑07 Apr 2022, 12:30 As I read the book, I started to pick up on many of the clues that indicated that Captain Joshua was the father of Devonte. For me, the biggest tip-off was the color of their eyes and when the fish merchant wondered where he had seen the kindness of the gray eyes before. At first, I thought that the author had made this connection too obvious. Then I started to wonder if this was simply a well-developed lead-up to the big reveal. What do you think? Was the father-daughter relationship too predictable? Or was the reveal a result of perfect foreshadowing?

Including some well thought out examples really helped proved your point! I'm more convinced with two reinforced examples. I thought it was interesting how your end conclusion was different from others.Patty Allread wrote: ↑17 Apr 2022, 14:10 I noticed the clues that could have meant Captain Joshua was Davonte's real father. The clues were not just in their physical descriptions, but also parts of the storyline. For example, Davonte's parents returned to the Maroon in Argentina to help them build and that is where Captain Joshua had gone in search of his wife and daughter. I found the clues were well-placed and not clumsily used. They didn't interrupt my enjoyment of the story.
