3.5 our of 5 stars.
I really enjoyed this story. I thought it was really unique and held a lot of mystery for the reader. I loved how it was a girl power quest story. There aren’t a lot of male characters in it which Jennifer Donnelly tends to do. It was a story of friendship and the magic of the ocean. While I know it’s a series, I was surprised at how heavy it was on setting itself up for the second one. A major cliff hanger at the end.
I loved the character of Blu. He has in the book briefly but I became very attached to him and I hope we see him again soon.
I will say that it was a little hard to get into because there are a lot “mermaid terms” and other languages thrown in that make it difficult to get into the story. This is one of those scenarios where every single person who reads this will pronounce words and names differently.
There’s a glossary in the back. Let me just leave it at that.
Overall, very enjoyable and I’ll be picking up the second one soon.
