Good morning my peeps and welcome back to another book day for reader round up. Today I have for your book two in the World of Aluvia series by Amy Bearce. MER - CHARMER .
BOOK BLURB
Fourteen-year-old Phoebe Quinn is surrounded by magic, but she can’t muster any of her own. Her sister is a fairy keeper. Her best friends are merfolk. And all she does is dishes and housework.
When Phoebe finds out a terrible sea creature is awakening that preys upon the peace-loving merfolk, she becomes determined to help them, even though it means risking her life deep in the ocean. Beneath the waves, Phoebe learns she’s more like her sister than she realized. The merfolk are drawn to her, and she can sense the magic of the sea all around her. Magic is finally at her fingertips--which is precisely why the stirring dark power under the waters decides it wants her most of all.
Now she must not only help the peaceful merfolk escape this ancient enemy, she must master her raw, out-of-control powers. If she fails, she will die and darkness will rise and enslave the merfolk once more. But embracing her full power could cost her the very people she loves the most.
MY REVIEW
Phoebe Quinn has been surrounded by magic for as long as she can remember. She is drawn to the water and has met some of her best friends mer folk. When she finds out there is an ancient evil trying to wake up and take out the mer folk. Phoebe will do anything to protect her friends and the one she loves even awaken the magic within her and become the person she is destined to be.
Phoebe is such a sweet character, she has been through so much in her young life. There are moments when she doesn't feel like she belongs anywhere, she just feels ordinary . I mean her older sister is the Fairy Keeper and all she does is clean the house. She is a little naive but when push comes to shove she proves what she can do. Tristian well he is her love and even though he is a merman he is her best friend and truly cares about her. They are best friends . He is like a protector and her best friend but you know there is actually something deeper between them . Each character is written with such care and the author constructs a very well written and complex character .
This is a story for anyone who loves mermaids and wanting to be part of that world . Ok yes I am one of those people. The author does such a great job of painting a world that you can get lost in and find adventure and love . This is such a fun read and would be great for anyone from middle school up to us old folks that just like a fun story that will take you away for a bit . A great read to wile away the summer at the lake. So let your kids check it out I promise this series will have them turning pages until sunset
