Review: Unique and addicting - But not a complete story/series
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 06 12, 2013
Let me start by saying, I normally try to steer clear of the YA genre, and anytime I read a synopsis that involves teenagers or high school I stop there, and move on.  It seems like most books in that genre tend to follow a similar plot of numerous books previously written. After a while, they all just started to feel the same, ya know?I started out just reading the sample of this book, because my curiosity got the best of me. It pulled me in, so I decided to continue. The next thing I knew I'd completed the whole first book. It just pulls you in. The character depth was amazing. The story line was beyond original.  This is the first book I had ever read about a siren. I loved the Greek mythology references as well. I cannot wait to read more in this series!***Update after original post***I just went to the writers blog, and see book 2 isn't due to be released until October 2013. I enjoyed book 1 and all, but I read a lot, and in 4 months, I doubt my interest in this series will be as strong, so most likely, even though I enjoyed book 1, I won't be reading more in this series.  Long gaps in between book releases just personally don't work for me.***2nd update***I originally rated this book a 5 star read..........while I did enjoy this book, It was a not a complete story therefore I feel the need to drop my rating. This was not a complete story, and will only leave you frustrated while waiting for book 2, that still has not been released. I tried to wait for a book 2, but as we see, it's now January 2014 (I read book 1 in June 2013) and I see no book 2 available. At this point, it has simply been so long since reading book 1, and I read so often, I've lost all interest in continuing this series. I would not read book 2 now if given to me for free. Far too much time has passed, and I have whole heartedly lost interest in this "series". I wish I had not wasted my money on book 1 since it was only a partial part of a story. I also find it annoying that this publication date has been changed on Amazon to November 29, 2013 when I purchased this on June 11, 2013?
