On the island of Skylge live two different people: Skylgers (original residents), that are treated as second class and Currents, who came across the see and invaded the island under the pretence of the protection. They brought with them holy fire to protect them from sirens call. Sirens sing and lead you to the see, where they steel your soul and body.

Enna is Skylinger and lives with sick father and brother that is a sailor. One day he brings her LP, record that can only be played on the electronic device of the Currents. Royce, is from richest Current family and pianist. He want to buy LP from Enna, but she refuses. So they struck a deal, they will listen to it together. They form a friendship that turns into more.

History of the island is written by the winners, so not all is as it seem.

This is such a lovely story, that will make you swoon. Enna and Royce are both very strong character, special and trapped in their own way. It is the story of love, friendship, family, rebellion. And it is just so beautiful. I could reread it for a million times and still love it.

Highly recommend it!

Happy reading!

Heroes are finally all together. They didn't have the best start, the peace with the Roman camp they were hoping for is long gone and they are planning on going after them.  They are on a ship, made by Leo, trying to come to the ancient land, but of course, it never goes smoothly for the heroes. Annabeth has a quest of her own to complete, she has to follow the Mark of Athena and find the statue that was lost for centuries. She is hoping that it will help bring peace between the camps, but the mission is not easy.  It's my favourite in the series so far- Percy and Annabeth are finally back together. :) And that cliffhanger at the end, omg! rating ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ cover  ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

This one is a bit different but in a good way. Charlie wants to say I Love You to Nick, but can't seem to find a good moment. Meanwhile, his mental health keeps getting worse, to the point that he needs more help than he can get at home.  Nick is consumed with worry. He worries about coming out to his dad, but mostly he worries about Charlie.  He sees him getting worse and worse, to the point that he doesn't spend much time at school.  They both have to come to terms that they can't be everything for each other and find a balance between love and everything else.  rating❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ artwork❤❤❤❤❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie
