YASH MATE. Omg dat plottwist tho. I loved it :)

This book really wasn't an ending to a trilogy, it was a companion novel and it wasn't what I was expecting. I didn't really enjoy how everything kind of played out and also I thought there would be more explanation of things from Of Triton in this book, but there was not, just like she kind of didn't explain the aftermath of the things that happened in this book. All we really got was Emma & Galen doing things and then when the action happened, it just sort of happened, we didn't even get to see how some of the situations were handled. I thought the series as a whole definitely had it's problems but, it was enjoyable for something light to read.

Well that was an entertaining end to the series. I feel like this book makes more of a side book and less of a main book, but it worked. I enjoyed getting to know Neptune. It has a lot of crazy mystery things going on with kidnappings and stuff. Total teen drama with Emma in this one that I could have done without, but it was entertaining nonetheless.

I don't know why I had this trilogy on my TBR list for years. I loved every page there is although I find it a little predictable. But hey, it's about mermaids--Syrena--and, I think, I haven't read any yet. This trilogy def made me want to read books about mermaids now.

I hate that I started reading this (during my lunch break at work!!!) and can't seem to stop reading it! I had to know what will happen next and I can't do that while I'm working! I love the characters and have grown to like Rayna after [b:Of Poseidon|12425532|Of Poseidon (The Syrena Legacy, #1)|Anna Banks|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327879889l/12425532._SX50_.jpg|17375535]. Haha! The series could've left off after the second book but at least we get to have that epilogue! ❤

1.5 Stars

I don't understand why this book was even made. I'm pretty sure Of Triton wrapped up this below average series quite nicely. So already this book is completely pointless. And there's nothing worse than series that go on, let me tell you. *cough Pretty Little Liars cough* Add that to the fact that there's instalove and a love triangle and you really have one god awful mess of a book.

This book had a really strong beginning and end; it fell flat in the middle. I found Emma annoying in this book unlike the previous installments. I still love Galen my poor little angelfish. He went through way too much over the course of the third book.

I would definitely recommend this trilogy though. I would recommend any of Anna Bank's books. Her writing style is just effortless to read.

Initial Thoughts

My first thought was yay more Emma and Galen to be honest. I’m so addicted to them! Also I was a little confused because the second book ended so nicely. Shouldn’t the series have ended there?

My New BFF

I’m still loving Emma. Doesn’t matter what she does she’ll always be awesome. She’s brave and clever, both things I love seeing in my heroines.

My Crush

I love Galen but man he was annoying in this one. He was still perfectly beautiful and amazing but I didn’t like the whole jealousy thing he had going on. I feel like he’s a better person than that. He was really hesitant the whole book too. I was disappointed in him. I felt like the romance that was usually between Galen and Emma just wasn’t there. It’s something I was really looking forward to.

Writing Style

The one reason why I didn’t give this book 5 stars was because it felt out of place. Book two followed directly after book one and then this book is kind of just thrown at the end. It feels like the series should have ended after book two but the author wanted to cram a little more in. Kind of like the Mortal Instruments series. The writing was still good and the characters still amazing but the plot felt a little forced.

Closing Thoughts

A part of my wishes the series had ended after book two. I wasn’t crazy about the plot in this one. It was a little strange. It was still good and I enjoyed reading it but it wasn’t amazing like the first two. That made me feel a little disappointed with the author. Most of the new characters were good and there was still parts with the old ones which made me feel a little better. While I wished this book didn’t exist, that’s still no excuse for not reading it. Get to it!

Bonus: The ending was cute and fun!

Carina questa storia, quasi come fosse di contorno a quella principale che si era ampliamente conclusa con Of Triton ;)
L'epilogo è dolcissimo, vorrete leggere questo libro solo per arrivare a quello ❤️

I really loved the book. It makes you realise that no matter how many choices you are given in life, you should always choose what you love. And then I completely in love with Galen.<3
