The Abyss Surrounds Us by Emily Skrutskie

msrcreation's review against another edition

4.5

 It's just too short. This book needs some more pages just so you can understand the world and the characters a bit more and grow attached to them. Outside of that I loved it. What we do get of the characters I loved. The relationship is cute and entertaining. The idea of trainers of these genetically modified sea beasts is really interesting. I really liked the plot and the grittiness of the story. It was great read and with that ending I definitely want to pick up the sequel and see what happens next.

I didn't expect it to be this good. This book is many things I wanted Leviathan to be. It's much shorter and less detailed than Leviathan, but still very good. Plus, who doesn't want a pirate girlfriend? I'm ready for more about Cas and Swift.

it took a dip in my interest towards about a third of the way in but it was worth it in the end. i love how cas sexuality was already defined before the story began
