Her rationale for some of her decisions made me roll my eyes considering she is supposed to be 18 and “mature”. The Characters:Įmma is the classic “special snowflake” heroine with a massive chip on her shoulder to make her (unnecessarily) angsty. They’re very basic in their approach and I feel like with the politics of the world, more things could have been going on to give the story an edge. However, I did think the pacing was good and these books were always moving so they never felt like they dragged on. I craved a little more excited but perhaps that was because I could see the plot twists a mile away. This is one of those series I might have enjoyed a little more 10 years ago when it first came out.

I just get a little chooser about what I read because I know what I like and what I don’t like. The Plot:Įven as I get older, I still enjoy YA reads. It’s a fun play on mythology and other mermaid tales. When the trilogy became available on audio at my library, I knew it was the next one for me to binge! The Concept / The World: The other part was that this book seemed to be everywhere when I first started blogging and I think I felt like I was missing out on something. I think part of it is that I just never really read a lot of mermaid books. It escaped numerous declutterings of my TBR because there was just something about it that made me want to read it, even years later. I’ve had Of Poseidon on my TBR for YEARS.
