Updrift by Errin Stevens
4.0
"Use the term siren, please," he begged. "I always picture myself in drag when I hear mermaid, and I'm not very pretty." He shuddered.
This is my favourite line in the book.
I have wanted to read Updrift ever since I met Erri on I stagram over a year ago and I honestly have to say that I absolutely loved this story! It's exciting, it's new and fresh and it has all the feels!!
I have nothing bad to say about this book. Sure, part 1 is a little slow but it's not boring or dull in any way. There's humour, drama, suspense; and the romance! Oh, I wish some guy would sweep me off my feet like Gabe does with Kate... sigh.
I have heard a lot of people compare this with The Little Mermaid, and though it has references to TLM, it is a completely new take on mermaids - for me, anyway; I haven't read many mermaid stories - which is very refreshing.
Errin is an amazing person which is carried through in her book. Her writing style consists of long sentences, almost paragraph like, but it is similar to the way I think so the words just flowed; I couldn't read this book fast enough!
Character development is amazing and the world building is extremely good!
I give Updrift a stupendous 4 1/2 stars and I highly recommend this book to everyone.
Thank you, Errin, for writing such a beautiful story; I will cherish it forever!
