Wow. Just wow. Adrienne Young’s writing has improved by a million times since Sky in the Deep. The characters are much more developed and the story is pretty smooth. I’m obsessed and excited to read the next book!
Reread 1/6/24 - Still a 5/5. I love this story and I love the water. It’s just so charming and magical without the use of literal magic! I cannot and will not tolerate people saying that West and Fable have no chemistry either since they are most definitely made for each other. Not only that, it’s a slow burn and there are plenty of romantic moments leading up to their kiss. I wish people would stop expecting smut in a YA novel. This is what a real relationship is y’all, it’s the subtleties along with the craziness. Get over your own personal fantasies…
