Not my typical jam when it comes to books, let alone fiction, but the story was engaging enough that I wanted to finish the book. Not in a rush to finish the series though. But good read for those interested in fantasy/faerie tales. (

I stopped reading this book at 11 percent. I have no idea what is going on and honestly don't care enough to push on to figure it out either.

The main character is Selkie who is in high school and is obsessed with a guy named Ben that she meets in Boston Common. There are some secrets regarding Selkie's mother and other things but I don't care enough to continue.

The writing was too painful for me to keep trying to get through. I think the main issue is that a lot of thoughts were tied up in just a single sentence so your brain had no opportunity to untangle what was being said.

And if I am going to read a book based on the fae and other supernatural creatures that have been told before, I need a book that is going to offer up something new. (

The beginning was really, really good. And then the middle part happened and what was fun about this book just...died. I'm definitely not going to read another in this series.
3 stars because the beginning was great, but realistically, it deserves about 2.5 stars at best. (
