From School Library Journal

Grade 8 Up–In this sequel to Bloody Jack (Harcourt, 2002), Meyer continues the adventures of the wild and wanton Jacky, who sailed aboard HMS Dolphinas a crewmemberuntil it was discovered that he was really a girl. Here, she must leave her true love, Jaimy, when she is put ashore in Boston for a new start at an elite girls' school. She describes her snobbish classmates and the failed attempts of the headmistress to make a lady out of her. A natural show-off, Jacky loves to play her pennywhistle and dance on the streets. When she is arrested and jailed for showing some knee, she is demoted to serving girl. She hooks up with a drunken violin player to perform in taverns to earn money to get back to England and her Jaimy. With her propensity for plunging headfirst into trouble, the irrepressible Jacky rolls quickly from one adventure to another. As the story ends, she signs onto a whaler bound for England, leaving an opening for a third volume. Meyer does an excellent job of conveying life in Boston in 1803, particularly the rights, or lack thereof, of women. Jacky's headstrong certainty that she's in control and her cocky first-person account make her a memorable heroine. The narrative is full of lecherous men, and Jacky herself is free in her ways. This fact and the sometimes-strong language make this book more appropriate for older readers. Sure to please fans of the first title, this adventure-packed historical novel also stands on its own.–Connie Tyrrell Burns, Mahoney Middle School, South Portland, ME

From Booklist

*Starred Review* Gr. 6-9. Taking up where the original story of Bloody Jack (2002) left off, this early-nineteenth-century adventure story begins with Jacky Faber, no longer disguised as a ship's boy, leaving the Dolphin and going to her new home, the Lawson Peabody School for Young Girls. There Mistress Pimm takes on the formidable task of transforming the indomitable scamp into a young lady. Good-hearted but spirited and unconventional, Jacky tries to learn, but finds it impossible to conform to an ideal of womanhood that does not include "lewd" exhibitions of singing and dancing, dressing in men's clothing, consorting with drunkards and prostitutes, and using language as salty as any sailor's. Though her boldness puts her in situations dangerous to her safety and her virtue, Jacky manages to bring the complete downfall of a detestable preacher and good fortune to her many friends. The characterizations are undeniably broad, but one of the riches of this entertaining novel is the large, Dickensian cast of colorfully named figures--e.g., the enigmatic theatrical duo Mr. Fennel and Mr. Bean. Happily, the book's conclusion promises a sequel with Jacky at sea once more. Carolyn Phelan

5.0étoiles sur 5 Excellent! A wonderful sequel, Sep 27 2008
Wonderful! Curse of the blue tattoo is a great book, a perfect sequel to the first Bloody Jack novel.
After Jacky is kicked off the Dolphin she is sent to the Lawson Peabody School for young girls. Her goal is to become a lady. Many a blunder follows many friends as Jacky struggles to become a lady.
Definitely a girl's book, I do not recommend this to boys.
Great book, a satisfying sequel.

This review is from: Curse Of the Blue Tattoo: Being the Misadventures Of Jacky Faber, Midshipman and Fine Lady (Hardcover)
Let me tell you something: Creating a sequel to such a great book like "Bloody Jack", is a hard task. But, Mr. Meyer has done it, and he has done it very well. Although the second book does not have as much action as the first, it has just as good of a plot, story and theme. When i found out Mr. Meyer was to make a sequel, i asked myself, "How can he write a sequel and not have the same story line? Obviously she cannot hide the fact that she is a girl any longer, which means she cannot sail the seas. How will Mr. Meyer accomplish the task of writing a second chapter in the Bloody Jack tales? And if he does, will he be succesful?"

The Answer is, yes, this story is equally good, no, equally GREAT as the first one. Nice work Mr. Meyer.

This review is from: Curse Of the Blue Tattoo: Being the Misadventures Of Jacky Faber, Midshipman and Fine Lady (Hardcover)
(...) Curse of the Blue tatoo is not only a icky book, its a Baaaaaaaad sequel. I don't hate Bloody Jack, its actually a pretty good book. Blue Tatoo is a stupid book. No offense meant to Mr. Meyer though. It was much too long, going on and on about how she hates her school, how she struggles to survive, how she doesn't like wearing low-cut dresses, how precious Jaimy will love her for being so prissy, blah blah bleh. It loses any resemblance to the first early on in the book. Dont read this please. (hehe i also dont like it cuz it makes us New Englanders look bad hehe)
