BOSAS is a really interesting story about a Selkie and a Siren enemies to lovers pairing, and the story of their people's history.
The FMC and MMC are wonderful, I loved reading about both of them and from each of their POV. Marina is snarky, wild and rebellious, and just wants to be free to explore. Caspian is a Siren pirate on the seas, and them meeting is no coincidence.
The story moves along at a good pace, not too much or too little information, and we really get to know them better.
I loved the kelpie's and their side plot, it was a great avenue for Marina to grow. I also loved watching her be in the Nordhavn port - everything was described so well and reading about her excitement was so wonderful.
Definitely a great romantasy, cozy, snarky read, and I loved it!
