Welcome to day Six of @CuriosityQuills Week! Mer-Charmer (World of Aluvia #2) by @AmyBearce #BookReview #Giveaway

Welcome to day Six! Here is another fantasy for you guys! this one with a Mer Charmer! I hope you enjoy! 
 
Fourteen-year-old Phoebe Quinn is surrounded by magic, but she can’t muster any of her own. Her sister is a fairy keeper. Her best friends are merfolk. And all she does is dishes and housework.

When Phoebe finds out a terrible sea creature is awakening that preys upon the peace-loving merfolk, she becomes determined to help them, even though it means going with Tristan and Mina to their home deep in the sea.

Beneath the waves, Phoebe learns she’s more like her sister than she realized. The merfolk are drawn to her, and she can sense the magic of the sea all around her. Magic is finally at her fingertips, but that’s precisely why the stirring dark power under the waters decides it wants her most of all.

Now she must not only help the peaceful merfolk escape this ancient enemy, she must master her out-of-control powers. If she fails, she will die and darkness will rise and enslave the merfolk once more. But embracing her full power could cost her the very people she loves the most.

This was another series where book two was even better than book one!  I love how we get some old friends in this one but also a brand new story!  I loved learning more about this world.  This gave me the feels of Doby is a free elf in the fact that Phoebe is not trusted fully by the menfolk because of what has been done to them.  As well as a reverse Little Mermaid. 

This one felt a little higher YA as well.  All the characters were amazing in this one and the world is full of dangers but also breathtaking. This book is more than a story its an experience for the reader. The ending will leave you with all the feels!
