Representaion In Pursuance Of Books Emily Windsnap and the Siren's Secret (Emily Windsnap #4)

5/5 stars

I'd had enough surprises in the last few months to know that you don't always find the answers you're looking for without finding about fifty unwanted ones first.

This is the last book I have read in this wonderful series (the series consists of six books, although the last ones are in fact companion novels mostly). When I closed this book, I let the smell of salt, the sound of the waves and the feel of soft sand between my fingers stay in my mind for a little. When I finished this story, I went an hugged my family, knowing that it taught me family, blood or not, is the most important thing in the world, and everyone deserves to have one. When this tale came to an end, I called my friends, asking them when we're gonna live a beautiful, heart-stopping adventure like the ones Emily Windsnap and her friends live and will forever get tangled into.

I lied back in my bed, thinking of the fresh, calming and careful writing, the beautiful fairy tale elements and the plot that made me laugh, squeal and cry a million tears. I rushed back to my childhood, reminding myself of how I first had read this book and then the others in the series, like the weirdo I am. I remembered how safe these books made me feel. That all the darkness would go away and that like a lighthouse in a raging sea, I'd find happiness. Today, after so many years, I close my eyes and let the safety these books make me feel sink in for a few minutes. I do that with every book, honestly. With these ones, though...I let my mind rush for a little. I let myself imagine I was a merhuman. And a smile rose in my face like the sun rises in the sky when the night ends.

When I closed this book, I wondered why books make us feel so strong, and powerful, and that all the pain will go away. I didn't find an answer. But I did know that I'd read my childhood favorite, the Emily Windsnap series, until the end. No matter how old I get, I thought, I'll always go back to see these wonderful characters, and this heart-warming fairytale about love and acceptance.

When I closed this book, I smiled a huge, bright smile. Because I knew. Emily showed me. I knew, in the end, everything will be alright ♥

That was very emotional, wow. But that's how I feel about this book. They are so important for me, and they are my immediate thought of comfort. What are your books of comfort, dear readers? I would love you guys to share ♥

Until the next review, keep dreaming ♥

Notice Out Of Books Emily Windsnap and the Siren's Secret (Emily Windsnap #4)

I'm really loving this series of books. Such a feel good load of fun. Emily really has a knack for being in the wrong places and causing trouble 🤣

A really magical and fun adventure about Emily, a girl who transforms into a mermaid when she's in water, and her friends Shona, Aaron and Mandy. Together they want to save Emily's hometown from the houses that are to be built there and that would destroy the merpeople's community. The book is an easy and fun read with many important topics for children, such as friendships, first love and making plans and fighting for what's important together. I'd recommend the series for 9 years and up :)

So I don't think I actually knew this book existed until after I read the last book so I read it out of order I think but didn't Aaron kiss Emily in this one? Idk but I don't remember the plot at ALL so I don't think it could've been that good if I don't remember it...

Not knowing that the mermaid town of Shiprock is under their pier, the people of Brightpoint are demolishing and rebuilding the area into a theme park. Anti-human sentiment among the mers gets Emily and her friend Aaron expelled from mermaid school. They decide to search for sirens who went mysteriously missing decades ago. Everybody was getting along by the end, but it was all sort of a deus ex machina. And Neptune ended up with all the power again, which was disappointing.

A lot of the worldbuilding is explained in the earlier books, so theres not a lot of it. The premise is less interesting than in the other books, but the reveals and the mystery in the plot is great. The prologue is told by an unknown person in third person omniscient past. It seems unnecessary, because it doesnt reveal any useful information. The rest of the book is Emilys to tell, in first person past. Her narration is detailed and distinct. Theres little diversity. The characters are flat.

AWWW our little Emily is growing up <3!Once again, Emily gets a little too curious and gets her fin stuck into places it doesn't belong. Once again, she pulls her friends down with her. However, this time she has a bargaining chip, something Neptune wants. She is finally thinking her actions through before she takes them... most of the time. Her circle of loyal and helpful friends is growing, and so is her family. I continue to be impressed with the major life lessons these books make seem so

This book was very good, in this book Shiprock is being threatened by construction and Emily is now trying to bring the worlds of merpeople and humans together and before she knew it she was back at Brightport, there she starts her mission plus a side adventure to find the missing sirens with Shona and her trying to figure out her feeling towards her new friendI really like this book because they are finally bringing the two different worlds together to live in peace with each other and while
