A review by jalialynn
When Oceans Rise by Robin Alvarez

2.75

This book is a little mermaid retelling which, when i saw that i was so excited!! the little mermaid is one of my favorite disney movie, so i thought i’d love this but this book just fell flat for me.

There were things that i liked about this book. I really liked the magic system and how it was more of multiverse thing i thought that was really cool. I also love how the cultural aspect was a big part of this book. The whole concept of this book was really good.

This book was really fast paced in a way that i just felt like i couldn’t connect to the character and it was just scene after scene just to get to the end point. The book was fast paced but just also felt so slow at the same time.

Thank You Netgalley & the publishers for a copy of the audiobook for an honest review.
