Siren Queen by Nghi Vo

mysterious
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
similar in style and concept to the  chosen and the beautiful but this one actually worked better for me! the supernatural/magical elements worked more seamlessly into this world though there were still a couple times where the distinction between metaphor and reality got confusing instead of fun and mysterious. i wish it had been a little longer and the epilogue expanded into a few chapters but i do understand the choice to end it where it was but it could have profited from being a little longer generally and just going slightly deeper into the secondary characters (harry, tara, the sister, jane, emmaline) but maybe that would’ve dragged out the pacing and it’s just because i enjoyed and just wanted more :)
