I loved Weyward so was looking forward to reading the latest (The Sirens) by the author.
This is an atmospheric and beautifully written novel about sisters, female empowerment, and resilience across the centuries. This is a slow-paced read told from three POVS and across timelines. I thought it was well-done but I did find the ending a bit unclear and had to read that part a couple of times. I also thought parts of the plot were overly complex and descriptive at times. There is magical realism woven throughout and for me, that part did not fully resonate.
While I enjoyed Weyward more, I am looking forward to reading more by this author.
Thanks to the publisher for the complimentary copy. All opinions are my own.

Great review, Stephanie. I agree that Wayward was better, but I also liked this book.
