Disappointed

So let me start by saying this is not typically what I read, so maybe the fact that I didn't care much for it just comes down to personal taste.

IMO, thin plot, two dimensional characters, and narration that honestly reminded me of those Barbie PC games I used to play when I was a kid in the 90s. I dont know, the voice is weirdly girly and upbeat, and didn't hold a lot of emotion beyond squealing girly delight and depressed, angsty sobs.

I definitely think I just don't fit the target audience for this book - too young for me, and I'm only 22.

Real life is sad enough

I read to escape into different worlds, but Kiera's stories are depressing! I decided not to finish it and I never quit on a book!

amazing

I loved this story hope I find the second of what happens to the girls from their pov though

Ok story

Not a very exciting story line. Seemed like a very young teenagers idea of love. Lots of whining and a not-plausible love story and I'm open to alot. Hard to make it trough the whole book. Really like all of Kiera Cass's other books but this was not to that level!

The Siren

Fun and oh so serious. A fantasy that holds true human emotions. Loving so deeply that letting go is your only option.

Amazing!

I loved it! Definitely Kiera Cass' best work. The narrator was great, the story was amazing. 10/10 must read!

Ended a little abruptly

It ended a little abruptly for my taste but over all it was really good. loved the reader

I liked it

I read this for a book club so it wasn't one that I probably would pick myself but I really enjoyed it. The story developed throughout the book and had me wondering what would happen next and the ending left me slightly surprised.

Wanted to love it

I really thought I would love it. Big Kiera Cass fan but this one fell a little flat for me.

Sweet and imaginative

I love the concept of this story and it wasn’t too bad. Great narration, for sure! I heard this is her 1st book before Selection series (which I couldn’t finish book 1 on that series). Nevertheless, I am into fairytales & my favorite is The Little Mermaid. This is somewhat a re-tell with a modern twist. It was quite slow and at times, you are learning along the way the mythology of the sirens of the sea. It was quite different, interesting, & sweet but still good. If you want to read something way beyond your limit of imagination especially in fantasy world and a very easy& light read, this is for you.
