OH DUDE this is one of those books where the pov character is not the main character, which means that the pov character spends like ALL HIS TIME paying unreasonable quantities of attention to the wonderfulness of the main character and it is BEAUTIFUL. I love it. And of course I totally ship Hornblower/Bush (mc/pov) because I mean really.

And okay but I actually really love seeing Hornblower from an outside pov, after spending last book in his poor anxious head. He's so INTERESTING from the outside, especially when you know about all his insecurities from the earlier book. Though on the other hand this book is basically an ode to how Hornblower is the only truly capable person in the world and it's kind of hilarious.
