3.0
adventurous emotional hopeful medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

I'll admit YA isn't my usual preference but I'm a marine ecologist and so when I heard about a Spirited Away-esque book but with a kingdom below the sea I had to try it. It is very cute and I read this book very quickly as it's quite short.
However, I just feel like something is missing. Maybe it's because the enemies become friends/romantic a bit too quickly/easily for me or maybe it because I didn't really love the ending but overall this was just okay. I wished it had more references to the ocean considering the cover but I haven't reduced my rating as that's just a me thing.
