Our Vengeful Souls by Kristi McManus
3.0
Sereia is a magical mermaid. One day her brother casts her out of the kingdom and curses her – if she ever returns, she will be a monster, and she is turned into a human. Left for dead, Sereia washes ashore in Atlantis. She is discovered by a merchant with a tragic past. He helps her build a new life on land and amongst the Atlantean army. It is during her training that she learns the legend of a trident. With a way back to the sea and an army at her ranks, she is faced with a hard decision – be burned at the stake as a witch or turn into a monster and return to the sea. Which will she choose?
What a beautiful story of empowerment! Just beautiful. I had all the feels for Sereia in this one. I can’t imagine being a sibling that was only created as a spare. That would just be heart wrenching. This book is a slow burn, but it really pulls you into the unique world that the author has created. I loved the adventure and the romance. Even though this is a slow burn, it did keep me engaged and it was a rather quick read.
If you are looking for a beautifully written retelling of the little mermaid with some mythology added in, then check this one out.
If you would love the full experience that Once Upon a Book Club Box provides, then grab yourself a box. This book is gorgeous too. It has wonderful, sprayed edges and the cover is so shimmery. It’s just a stunning edition.
This was the June YA Box called Ursula Awakens. Use my code SPEEDREAD to save yourself some money. I do the monthly subscription and think of it as a monthly treat.
