Ich habe dieses Buch kostenlos im Gegenzug für meine ehrliche Meinung erhalten.
Ein wunderbares Buch, um immer mal wieder reinzuschauen und durchzublättern!
Das Buch kam natürlich zur perfekten Zeit und hat sicherlich auch dazu beigetragen, dass uns Deutschland noch ein wenig mehr gefällt als vorher – und dass sich sicher auch mehr Leute auf den Weg gemacht haben!
It’s been a while! And it might stay kind of quiet on here until October, sadly. 😦 I just had my first exam and am in the midst of writing a few essays and such things. In September I’ll be in an internship for 4 weeks, so I won’t really have time to read or write reviews. I did listen to and read some books in the last few weeks though, and I’ll try to write down my thoughts on them. 🙂 Happy reading!
Today’s book is…The Siren by Kiera Cass! Though the cover looks like the Selection series, it’s not within that series. It is a standalone and came off a bit random to me, at first, but it has its charme!
Love is a risk worth taking.
Years ago, Kahlen was rescued from drowning by the Ocean. To repay her debt, she has served as a Siren ever since, using her voice to lure countless strangers to their deaths. Though a single word from Kahlen can kill, she can’t resist spending her days on land, watching ordinary people and longing for the day when she will be able to speak and laugh and live freely among them again.
Kahlen is resigned to finishing her sentence in solitude…until she meets Akinli. Handsome, caring, and kind, Akinli is everything Kahlen ever dreamed of. And though she can’t talk to him, they soon forge a connection neither of them can deny…and Kahlen doesn’t want to.
Falling in love with a human breaks all the Ocean’s rules, and if the Ocean discovers Kahlen’s feelings, she’ll be forced to leave Akinli for good. But for the first time in a lifetime of following the rules, Kahlen is determined to follow her heart
