I plan on becoming a mermaid when I grow up. If I can't be a mermaid, I'll be a fairy, a unicorn, a Phoenix, or a sylph or something like it. But sadly, this is the real world, they "don't exist." But I believe... So back to the book. When I first heard about this book, my first thought w...

Also appears on The Book Lantern. Note: A copy of this book was provided by the publishers via NetGalley. Now that this is out of the way, onto the review.Okay, so here's the thing: I thought about not writing this review. It felt like a lot of unnecessary effort, given how much has already been s...

I haven't laughed all the way through a book like that in a long time. Of Poseidon was a fun an entertaining read where witty humor and adorable awkwardness abound. I really enjoyed the characters as their personalities where a refreshing change of pace. Galen really surprised me. I wrongly assumed ...

I loved the attitude to Emma, she has this determination yet this inquisitive nature about her.

If a woman says no, she really means yes.Other people have done an excellent job of reviewing this book and pointing out the problems within it. To sum it up: forcing a girl to marry you is okay (because she secretly loves you, but you'll have to play some high school level mind games in order to re...

This book started out really well. Emma is a sassy, strong, confident female lead that doesn't let anyone push her around. The witty dialog between Emma, Galen, and the other characters in the story is really well done. I especially loved Toraf. Here is one of my favorite Toraf moments:“Emma this is...

Audiobook specific: Of Poseidon is definitely one of the better audiobooks I've listened to, narrator-wise. Each character had its own distinct voice. Normally I'm not a fan of cross-gender voices (because they just sound odd), but Rebecca Gibel was fantastic. I honestly think that, had I not listen...

For me, I think this book was a type of ...
