My Rating:

⭐⭐

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest opinion.

The Sunken City by Emma V.R. Noyes kind of sunk for me.

I was suckered in by the cover and the plot line. Looking forward to what this world offers me.

When I started to read this, I was pulled in by the world and the main character Amare. The pirate ships, the side characters and the magic that is later revealed.

Then when she got to the Sunken City, it just went downhill for me from there.

When Amare got to the city, she changed into a totally different person. On the pirate ship with her uncle, she was respectful, hardworking and mature. Then when she got to the Sunken City, she suddenly is unnecessarily rude, sarcastic and an immature person. It was a totally different vibe you got from Amare than when it started in the book.

Another thing that irked me a bit. So, this book started in the 1700’s basically. Cool era and I was ready to go with it. When Amare gets to the Sunken City, that is tossed out of the window. Now there is miniskirts and tank tops, clubs, fake ids and so on and so forth. Such a totally whip lash and such a total turn off. There was no solid transition into that type of world that to me it didn’t feel believable.

All in all, I personally did not like The Sunken City.
