Sometimes when an author writes alternating POV's, thevoices sound the same, but that is not the case in this book.InWake, I never felt that true connection to Harper, Alex, or Daniel,but that completely disappeared in this novel. Hocking has created each character with a unique voice andpersonality. There was never a time where I wasconfused or bored with the story. Gemma has gone with the sirens, while Harper, Alex,and Daniel are left to face with the aftermath and finding Gemma.While most authors can't effectively do third person POV withalternating perspectives, Amanda Hocking handles it extremely well,and the story flows very nicely. This book picks up right wherewe left off. Lullaby Sucks You Under and Never Let's GoBy CustomerIreally enjoyed this sequel to Wake. I lovedHocking's My Blood Approves and the Trylle trilogy but this seriesdidn't keep my interest.1 of 1 people found the following reviewhelpful. I think I'll pass on thethird book as this series was written clearly just to sell copieswithout having any substance or emotion behind it. I had high hopes for thisbook because the series had potential. The characters aren't well developedand I didn't feel close to any of them. Most of the book is rather dull until near the end, which isa cliffhanger and obviously just a set up for the next book.
Not Hocking'sBest Work.By Kmac4First of all, this book isn't very long, soyou'd think it would be edited down to only action packed scenes.Wrong. t to them if she needed to, but she hoped it wouldn’t come to that.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
Harper considered bringing them in, but they felt too gruesome to fight with. Their father had plenty of tools, like saws and even an ice pick, out in his work area in the garage. She put a baseball bat under her bed, and they brought in the shovel from out back and put it in the front hall closet. Harper put earplugs in her dresser drawer so the siren song couldn’t enchant her, and she shoved a butcher knife under her pillow.
They spent a long time discussing possible ways to break the curse and doing what research they could think of, but when they came up with nothing new or substantial, they prepared themselves to fight the sirens. Harper had stayed home from work again, refusing to leave Gemma unguarded, even for a few hours.īoth Harper and Gemma knew the sirens were coming after her-it was just a matter of time. Not to mention that they hadn’t figured out how to save Gemma from the sirens. “Gemma was still in trouble, and Brian should’ve stayed angry with her.
