This was rather enjoyable. The characters were fun and the budding romance between Alosa and Riden was cute. Enjoyed the lore about sirens and really liked the magic aspect to the story. But I also felt like the magic was explored well enough. It was almost  a deus ex machina for Alosa but at the same time, had so many restraints upon it that it just seemed unreasonable.

Overall enjoyed the story and will continue the series.

A quick, fun, adventurous fantasy read. I wish some of the secondary characters and plot points were developed more, but I’m sure the sequel will get into that. Overall a great read:)
