I know how it feels when you think there should be more, though luckily for me, it didn't happen with this book. As for the sequel, it'll be out next summer! <br /><br />Kelly- I have! I reviewed it last summer, and will be reviewing the sequel, Undercurrent, next week. They are definitely different, especially with the terminology- Siren is about sirens, and this is about mermaids, though the focus on luring people to the sea is similar. But Lost Voices spends more time with the main character as a mermaid and her getting used to that. Siren is about stopping them, and you don't get to see too much about the goings-on, at least if I remember correctly. Definitely give Lost Voices a shot though, if it sounds interesting!BookChichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03641362399541764523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865949393701399666.post-19534536839846251602011-07-11T16:02:37.006-04:002011-07-11T16:02:37.006-04:00Have you read "Siren" by Tricia Rayburn?...Have you read "Siren" by Tricia Rayburn? If so, how would you compare the two and which did you like most? It's the only mermaid book I've ever read.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08436715829857377271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865949393701399666.post-34607282471250668222011-07-09T13:33:40.098-04:002011-07-09T13:33:40.098-04:00What a thoughtful review!

I agree that the writing is quite spellbinding and I think Lost Voices has the depth that you mentioned, but I like a splashy ending and I felt that this one left me wondering if my copy was missing a few pages... (I know this sentence is one cringe-worthy run-on!)<br /><br />The concept of mermaids who have the power to kill with Luce trying to find a better purpose for her voice is rather interesting!<br /><br />I will have to keep an eye out for the sequel to find out what happens next!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17446862423234144625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865949393701399666.post-58647912973082992082011-07-09T12:24:00.319-04:002011-07-09T12:24:00.319-04:00I've heard mostly good things about this book....I've heard mostly good things about this book.
