My feelings for this book are stronger than the first one. I loved the character development, both in terms of Alosa’s relationship to her father and her relationship to Riden. We got to see more of Riden’s motivations too. I really hated the miscommunication trope and feel like both Alosa and Riden were bad listeners and also bad communicators for the first half of the book. But eventually they started talking lol. This book was definitely more gruesome than the first one, and I gasped out loud multiple times. I’m glad with how it all turned out, and how the story wrapped up nicely. What an adventure of a story! So many twists and turns.

Mystery, romance, tension, adventure, and found family all packed into an adventure with pirate royalty and fearsome sirens.  I can’t get enough of Alosa!! I loved following her through the pages in this truly epic duology. 🏴‍☠️🧜‍♀️
