Born of Water by A.L. Knorr
3.0
WARNING: Slight spoilers
First off, I feel like the book was a bit too slow. Maybe I'm use to reading faster pace books and that's why I feel this way. But I feel like the good stuff didn't happen till 3/4s of the way through the book. Then you're just at the end. I understand the concepts and everything and I love where Knorr took the book in many different aspects, how they tied the lore of sirens/mermaids, and how mermaids became like the guardians of the sea. I also like the environment friendly stuff, like how Targa ends up cleaning up after the humans with all their junk.
I didn't really care for the journal entry part, but I feel like it was also a good edition, I personally just didn't care for it. The only real reason why I might buy the sequels is because they sound like they'll be different from the first one. Personally though, I'm just interested in Akiko's story because there's so much mystery behind it.
Overall the book was good.
