and half of the book she was just bitter and depressed. I also feel that she was unfair with her sisters most of the time. I'm in a point of my life were I can't stand characters whose only aspiration in life is to get married. I'm not saying I loved the way it ended, but it took me by surprise! Definitely not the cliché I was expecting. Also! I liked that I thought I knew how his story would end and NOPE! Kiera really surprised me this time :P. I just wish we had more of him in the book. Her relationship with the girls was one of my favorite aspects of the story, it was very motherly.Īkinli was another character I really enjoyed reading, he was just too sweet, caring and funny. I mean, I liked the idea, I think that She was the strongest character of the book, and it's the first time I read something like it.
I really liked Her sometimes, but there were other times that She just confused me. Let's start with something I'm not sure if I liked or not, but it sure had me intrigued: The Ocean. Recycling.Īll in all, I liked this book, it was fresh, cute and a fast read, and that's what I needed (because I've been reading heartbreaking, sad books). When someone else remembers some great story about me/us that I’ve forgotten. Not walking up but looking at a beautiful staircase. Spending an hour typing at a coffee shop. That my wedding dress was tea length, not floor. Despite the story s weaknesses, Cass seeds it with enough intrigue to keep readers curious about how this hopeless love affair will play out. how do these girls have endless amounts of money to use in the human world? However, the sisterly bond between the sirens is touching, and Kahlen is sweet, if docile.
The siren world is fascinating if somewhat underdeveloped e.g.
Kahlen and Akinli are playfully cute, but the chemistry is missing, and readers may question why Kahlen risks so much for a guy she barely knows. Since sirens can t age, speak, or marry, their romance seems doomed. Kahlen detests her macabre work but finds some contentment with her siren sisters, until she unexpectedly falls in love with a guileless human, Akinli. After a shipwreck kills Kahlen s parents, she is rescued from drowning by the sentient Ocean herself, but must serve for 100 years as a siren, using her beauty and otherworldly voice to lure humans to horrible deaths at sea. Faithful fans of the Selection series can dive into this Little Mermaid esque story, originally self-published in 2009, but revised for its rerelease.
