It's a hell of a great journey, a bit ridiculous with the introduction of the greek mythology but pretty good, nevertheless. View all 9 comments. Dec 01, Abbie rated it liked it. Actual rating - 2. I still found quite a lot of it dull, and I still didn't like the characters. Overall, Dull, but not as bad as book two. Oct 08, Lauren Elise marked it as dnf. Jun 12, Meryl rated it liked it.

Deze serie wordt steeds beter en beter! May 02, Savannah Books With Bite rated it it was amazing. Did it blow me away? Remember in my Lullaby review I said things looked like they will get worse or put to the test? Hocking took this up several levels leaving the reader absolutely astonished. I think when I was done with the book I just could not believe that in the short time that I read it, it all changed so quickly.
Some characters were killed off, others were added, deadly betrayals of deals were made and Right after reading Lullaby,I immediately picked up this book and WOW Nelly! Some characters were killed off, others were added, deadly betrayals of deals were made and not to mention all the going behind other peoples backs.
It was all so good, I could not stop myself from reading no matter what. Take it from me when I say this book is filled with an amazing plot that will leave you breathless. All the relationships went to crap on a silver platter.

In just want to scream. As I read this book, all I could think of is, How will it all end? I mean, if it is falling this way, I can only imagine that the last book will be a doozy! This is an awesome book! This book gave me so much anxiety, I had to chill for a bit. Sending a wave of vengeance and lots of plot twist, Tidal is superb.
Nov 03, Yulia rated it liked it. I am so relieved right now. I'm just so glad that this wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It was just heading in a really bad direction and something tells me that there is definitely more trauma on the way in the last book but at least that will be the end and honestly I can't wait for it!
So this book is filled with drama and surprisingly some very emotional moments. In the last book I wasn't really that connected to it, but this time I actually found myself crying at Oh my god.. In the last book I wasn't really that connected to it, but this time I actually found myself crying at points. I also felt disgusted and enraged a lot more so really I don't know if I prefer this or being completely emotionless about it. As Gemma and the rest try to unveil the nature of the siren curse and try to get out of this whole situation, both main relationships just go to hell.
I really don't know how else to explain this book without spoiling it but I felt like it dragged out a lot with the main plot because of all the crap going on with the characters. And I just didn't need that crap, I really didn't. Why must I go through all this drama and horriblness and just ugh.
Watersong Series | World of Amanda Hocking
Can we please just finally get rid of Penn? And can everyone just stop making decisions for each other?? I get that you're trying to protect each other but oh my god some flipping communication really wouldn't hurt! A couple of things I am happy about. So far that has been Thea's backstory and I did have a feeling that she fell in love and he didn't love her back for some reason. I also enjoyed the occasional cute line between Harper and Daniel and that time that her Dad walked in on them was also funny, especially by how he reacted to it afterwards. Also one part of the drama that I actually enjoyed was everything between Alex and Gemma, because at least there there is no bitch in the way of their relationship, just figuring a way past the song.
So I mean in the end I did enjoy parts of the book, enough to make me feel like I should read the last one, however by far not enough to make me give this any more than three stars. Apr 26, Cheryl rated it liked it. After being rescued by her sister, Harper and her boyfriend, Daniel, Gemma is back with her family. Unfortunately the sirens, Penn, Lexi, and Thea have followed Gemma back to her home town. They are in no hurry either to leave. It seems that Penn has her eyes on Daniel. Once she finds her than Gemma is history.
That is until Gemma and Harper can find a way to stop the girls without killing Gemma herself. Tidal is the third book in the Waterso After being rescued by her sister, Harper and her boyfriend, Daniel, Gemma is back with her family. Tidal is the third book in the Watersong series. Amanda made me more excited about sirens with this series.
However I have to say that I was a little disappointed by this book. I expected there to be more action and for Penn to be her annoying her. She was in a way still annoying but only about a third of the way. Other wise she was more subtle in this book. In fact all three of the sirens were pretty docile. Even Gemma did not act out as she is learning to embrace her siren side.
What I did like however was getting to know the sirens and their past better.

Who they were before and in more detail how they became sirens. Still I enjoyed reading this book. I flew right through it, so it is a fast read. I hope that the next book, Elegy has lots more action that includes a big battle scene.

Book Review: Tidal (Watersong #3) by Amanda Hocking
Oct 18, Lovey Dovey Books rated it it was amazing Shelves: Protect your cuticles readers, because Amanda Hocking is raising the standard for supernatural suspense! Tidal, the third nail-biting installment to the Watersong series, is keeping the sirens in Capri and with Harper gearing up to leave for college, the race to free Gemma from the sirens is more dire than ever. Oh, how much has changed since Lullaby. Gemma and Alex are no longer an inseparable item, but what really stuns me is the aftermath of Gemma's siren song taking effect on Alex.
His change Protect your cuticles readers, because Amanda Hocking is raising the standard for supernatural suspense! His change is more than emotional, but physical as well. He's a buff, brooding teen struggling with a break up he can't remember and a change of life plans. What's most intriguing, with a side of trepidation, is how the past comes into play for the sirens.
Penn has this emerging obsession with Daniel that stems from an old love, Bastian, an immortal immune to their siren powers of seduction. This obsession not only provides a segue for readers to see a part of the sirens' past that otherwise probably would not have come up, but it shows a different side to Penn.
Whether you'll like this slightly alternate side of her is up a difference of taste, but ultimately she's still the villainous, conniving siren she's proven to be since Wake. Emotions are running high all around, from characters to audience. I had a hard time reading without tearing up, gasping in surprise, or feeling indignation on behalf of one character or another.
The plot focuses on Gemma and Harpers's personal lives on a more intimate level and adds a more human layer to the sirens, all while introducing new information regarding whether Gemma can break free from the sirens, once and for all, before Penn decides to kill her. The carefully constructed subplots and the harmony with the series' main storyline is a strong indication that Amanda is further testing the range of her writing style and passing with flying colors!
After Tidal's heart-racing head-to-head, which is a huge improvement over the simple altercation at the close of Lullaby, I'm a little more than terrified at what the series conclusion will bring. The sirens will continue to be a threat to Gemma, Harper, Daniel and Alex, but it seems not only to their lives, but their relationships as well. Nevertheless, if you're new to the series, or just a bit behind, Tidal is an immediate must-read!
Oct 07, Tamara rated it liked it Shelves: The cover is weird, by the way. I saw a review somewhere that said it's Daniel and Penn. Things are starting to get kind of crazy. A lot of things happen, particularly at the end of the book. Like, really hate her. I did before, but now I hate her even more. And I hate that Daniel finally relents and says he will. I really hope it doesn't come to that. They're good, strong sisters, and they really care about each other.
I honestly feel awful for Alex. I really hope the whole mess Gemma got him into gets straightened out. I was happy he confronted her and, by the end of the book, seemed determined to get through it and fix his life. It makes me so angry.
