Rhapsodic

I now can see the ACOTAR vibes this book has, but it goes beyond that! Callie is a siren, and even at 23 has gone through so much hardships that Thalassa executes perfectly. The flashbacks are written so well, and that paired with Callie's relationship with Desmund is stuff to dream of. At times, I wanted the relationship (as great as it was) to take the back seat as other things happened (it's the focus of the book I would say), though the plot progresses smoothly and includes mystery, fantasy, and exploration of poignant themes as well. Number 2 has made it onto my tbr.
