Review: Amazing!

I have to admit that I would have never picked up a book about mermaids if I hadn’t been asked to read Beached. Fish Out of Water is a must read first even if both books are said to be able to stand alone. I read about 5% OF Beached and immediately went to Amazon to buy Fish Out of Water. I felt like I was missing something and hoped I would get caught up by reading from the beginning. I am so glad I did, it was amazing and I did get the missing pieces.I was thrown off a little by the POV of the book. It is more of a narration in third person. While I missed the personal feel of Rania’s POV, I started to enjoy the broader view of Beached. There were so many important people to follow in Beached.Beached is action packed and full of answers from left over from Fish Out of Water. Love, beauty, pain and sarcasm are a big part of Beached. Being attached to Rania and Caragheen, I loved getting to see their relationship continue. Lecanora grows on you, she starts out kinda clueless and becomes a beauty to reckon with. I would have liked a little more Doug. I loved this series and my love for Ros as an author has grown considerably.Advanced copy was provided by Ros for an honest review.
