Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
NetGalley review;
The second book in the ‘the cursed melodies’ trilogy.
Shorter than the first but still thrilling! The continuation of the journey to defeating the shadowing but there are many obstacles in the way and so much betrayal and quite a few twists, one I sort of saw coming but one that I didn’t even thing about. I did enjoy it, it did take me a bit of time to try and remember what happened before but I eventually got there.
We see how the bond between these three goes from strength to strength to also heartbreak. Putting the story on the seas gives it a bit of a different look on where this story is going and the world that is created around it. There are many funny moments but there are also frantic moments too that make you think who can you really trust.
Now with the story coming full circle I only have a few questions, will we find the twins parents, now that we know what they are? What of Gwen’s parents also? Will we get a happy ending or will our hearts be ripped out?
Sorry if this review sounds a bit everywhere, suffering with a bit of a flare up.
