About this deal

My best friend : Okay, that book doesn't sound appealing to me anymore. I would rather read something else than that book. Hey, let's just watch a movie at my house! The clashes between Kalligan’s army and the crew are epically portrayed that they strike your mind just like their cutlasses. Daughter of the Siren Queen accompanied me on my 2019-Labor Day holiday travels. While I won't be adding it to my Favorites List, it was an entertaining weekend read. Also, the moments that were supposed to be romantic and bring some angst were so cringy that I had to put the book down and take a break so I wouldn't start screaming in frustration. I was addicted from the start. Mostly because I loved the main character and her sassy personality.

This was a lot of fun!! 🤩🤩 once again I FLEW through it and ended up thinking it was a great conclusion to the series! Really enjoyable 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️💗💗 I will probably continue on with the duology, mostly because I want to visit the home of the sirens. I think a young Meg would have enjoyed this a bit more. Like I said: I love the main character Alosa. She is well-trained, intelligent and has a big mouth aka is a sassy badass. I am me because I choose to be me. I am what I want. Some people say you have to find yourself. Not I. I believe we create ourselves to be what we want.” Alosa is a heroine you can't help but love. She is confident and stubborn, and her inner monologues are hilarious! While she can be cruel and vengeful, she also cares deeply, and Riden is the perfect match to her. He is torn between his loyalty to his (horrible) brother and the need to protect their red-haired prisoner, and you can't always tell which one prevails. His banters with Alosa are hilarious and their scenes toe-curling, filled with tension and heat. And swooning. The smile that makes your face hurt is a permanent effect, and you'll feel utter bliss that will stay with you even hours after you've finished this book and sacrificed cuttlefish to the Sea Gods praying to deliver the next instalment.I’m still pretty much in love with Alosa! She is such a good character even though she appears to be this tough, heartless person to other people. The way she cares for her crew is so beautiful! She literally does not think twice about putting herself in danger, but touch her crew and she will come for your head. Oh boy. Daughter of the Pirate King fulfils all promises and more. This is definitely one of my best reads in 2017. Genre: Teen & Young Adult Pirate Action & Adventure, Teen & Young Adult Historical Romance, Teen & Young Adult Fiction There's something about a Lady Pirate that I can definitely get behind. The setting was fun and Riden was a swoon-worthy love interest. As was to be expected, this book was a roaring good time. It also got me out of my mini reading slump.

Alosa is the daughter of the pirate king Kalligan. She's his only child (the only one he's claimed), which makes her very valuable. What people don't know is that she isn't a spoiled and pampered pirate princess - she is a cunning and dangerous pirate. When her father sends her on a mission to retrieve a part of a map, Alosa's plan is get captured willingly by a young pirate lord and search their ship for the piece of the map that the former pirate lord of that ship had. The captain, Draxen, is every bit as cruel and ruthless as his father was. But Alosa doesn't expect to be distracted by the captain's first mate and younger brother, Riden. Finding the piece of the map isn't going to be the difficult part of the task - getting around Riden will be.This book was a great book for a fierce heroine- confident, ambitious and cunning- Alosa will not let feelings get in the way when completing the task. She is not like a typical pirate and her own ship is pirated my mostly smart, ambitious and intuitive women. This book had great adventure, hidden truths and secrets, some romance and more importantly, funny banter, plotting and sarcasm laced through out.

This book was even better than the first one. It was still super cool, funny and exciting, but now it had an even faster pacing and we get into more depth with the characters and relationships. Sent on a mission to retrieve part of a map leading to the mysterious Isla de Canta, home to a secret treasure, 17-year old Pirate Captain, Alosa, gets kidnapped by her enemies. On purpose.The plot and action throughout this one was fine—though this is where most of the negatives come from—it felt as though there was not down time after each strand of action. There was always something going on. And while I normally don’t mind that, for some reason in this one it felt forced at certain points. Maybe that’s just me. My best friend : Hey! ... I wanted to ask you about how your day is but ... I thought better of it. Depending on what expectations you have before reading this book you will either love or hate it so I’m giving it 2.5 stars bc I had false expectations. Daughter of the Siren Queen is the sequel to Daughter of the Pirate King. We continue to follow Alosa and Riden as Alosa explores her powers and discovers dark secrets about her family as she struggles with her growing feelings for Riden....

The writing style is engrossing, it makes readers want to read their eyes out. The same kind of effect that took toll on me. I liked reading the growth that occurred in her characterisation throughout the story. The characters are not perfect, they make mistakes and foolish choices throughout the course of the story, which makes the story all the more natural and enjoyable. Not only is she a badass pirate, but the author managed to make her even more awesome by making her a half-siren feminist. I’m super curious about Sorinda and Kearan, wish there was another book out there I could read more about them, especially Sorinda. I really want a love story for them. Have you ever wished you could wield a sword and battle sea-beasts, explore bright blue oceans and listen to the song of sirens? During her preparations for her mission, she hadn't anticipated the strong influence of the clever and handsome Riden, the first mate and brother to the captain of the ship. As tension mounts aboard the ship, and time runs low to find the map, Alosa and Riden’s bond strengthens, and the plot takes an entirely unforeseen twist before reaching its dramatic conclusion.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Thinking that they’d go and have some fun, several men jumped overboard, including her father. But instead of the women fleeing, screaming to get away, it was the men who shrieked until their heads disappeared below the water’s surface. When Vordan exposes a secret the Pirate King has kept hidden for years, Alosa and her crew find themselves in a deadly race against her ruthless father. Now their only hope is to find the island and retrieve the treasure themselves, or suffer the consequences. Every few lines, Alosa seemed to be saying,'Oh, I can't do that it will give me away. I can't do that either, I can't be caught.'. Yeah, yeah, I understand she is a better fighter and pirate than everyone. *unimpressed* this review is posted now!! which is good b/c i definitely haven't hit my talking-about-how-much-i-hate-this-book quota. find it here: https://emmareadstoomuch.wordpress.co... I'd recommend this book! It's not an omg-new-favorite, but it's really enjoyable and definitely not disappointing. I wanted a fun, entertaining pirate-based story and I got exactly that (and a little more). I really liked the strong female protagonist and the clever and charming male protagonist, and the story was very entertaining. If you're looking for a captivating adventure on the sea, look no further!
