The Girl the Sea Gave Back
by Adrienne Young
The cover is gorgeous. Unfortunately the story fell flat for me. The story was very slow. There are a lot of characters to remember on top of learning this world. I did not read Sky in the Deep and I’m not sure reading that companion novel would’ve made a difference. I didn’t connect with any of the characters. Halvard, soon to be leader, and Tova, a truthteller, are the alternating narrators, whose clans are at war with each other. The possibility to develop and connect with these characters was there. I expected bigger, more exciting things in this world. I finished this book because I had to, not because I wanted to.
