I really enjoyed this!

The style of this writing feels like a mix of historical fiction and fantasy - a blending of real history and present day, with a fantasy twist to it. The story has multiple POVs, shifting between present day and a time in the past, with the lines blurring which is which and what is real vs dreams or imagination. 

 

I was so intrigued by the premise and curious about how the story would tie in the history and the use of sirens. The way the symptoms presented themselves were very interesting and the difference between the two sisters handling in it was a contrast I appreciated. 

I didn’t see the ending coming till late in the book, and it made so much sense but also made me so sad. Melancholy but hopeful. The positivity wrapped up and made me smile.
