Sing Me to Sleep by Gabi Burton
5.0
adventurous dark mysterious sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The most interesting YA fantasy concept I’ve come across in ages. I loved the magic system and the building out of what being a siren not only looks like but feels like. 

Part of me wishes the characters were aged up but at the same time Burton managed to make them feel realistically like late teenagers - headstrong, angsty, and prone to mistakes that they learn from without being overly childlike. 

Very excited to read the sequel!
