Personally, I liked the first book better but I do feel like people would probably enjoy this story line.

P.S. have I said how much I am loving Scribd???? Haha 😍😍😍😍😍😍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Hello #groupO !!! I was trying for an artsy photo, but then my cats found the tassel on my bookmark, lol.

I absolutely loved reading this book, it was hard to put down for silly things like going to work and eating!

@Cheshirecat913 I‘ll be getting it in the mail on Thursday. #LMPBC

Also, @TheAromaofBooks this was my July #doublespin book

Hello #groupO !! Here are my picks for #LMPBC #round12

whatcha think?? I‘m so excited to read one of these.

Also, I sent you all an email with my corrected address, just want to make sure you got it.

Considering the amount of fighting in this book, it‘s weird to call it a sweet book right? But it is, it feels sweet, and makes me want to give all the characters hugs.

This is between a pick and so-so. I thought it an ok read. Waring tribes, a girl who can see the future, not liked by the people who found her as a child. A young man sees his people killed, becomes chieftain and meets the girl. Set in Nordic scenery. #books

I started this book today and am fairly enjoying it so far! I have had it for a while too, so glad to read it! #currentlyreading

A kickass female with a bow and arrow and love of the sea!
Enjoyed this just as much as the first one.

Oh wow! Thats another interesting read that weave a unique story with mythology. Tova has lived her live not knowing why/how she can read the destiny written by the fates. Little does she know that she was chosen for something entirely different. I enjoyed watching Tova's fate unfold. I am drawn to author's who can create what feels like new worlds into old mythology.

I really enjoyed the book however I‘m not a fan of back and forth between two people but this one I did enjoy

MY RATING⇢ 3 STARS | GRADE C
The action scenes were incomparable...but they weren't enough to carry the whole story. I wanted more than what this story delivered. I wanted the romantic tension that the first book had. Instead, there were only a handful of scenes with both the main characters present.

I loved this book. The descriptions were beautiful and the story followed a young woman trying to find her place.

I really enjoyed this story that follows Halvard, 10 years after Sky in the Deep.

I was pulled into the story from page one. I was really happy to be back in the world and to see what the characters were up to. I really enjoyed the intro to a new Viking clan. The only thing is I wanted more of Tova‘s people story! I feel like we barely scratched the surface with them and a book about them would be appreciated.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Guys, I loved this book! I‘m surprised it has gotten so many low reviews. I love the descriptive writing the Adrienne Young offers in her stories. I always feel like I‘m alongside the characters in the woods or along the bitter sea. I really enjoyed this one! Vikings, rune casting, female leads. All my jam.

#24b4Monday Wrap-Up

Made it to 25 hours! Seven books finished and another one started.

Thanks for a reason to indulge in reading this weekend! @TheReadingMermaid @Andrew65 @jb72

Sky In The Deep was one of my favorites last year, and while I didn‘t enjoy this one quite as much, it was still very good.

I love this author! I read her original book and could not put it down. I have the same feelings about this gorgeous book.

While The Girl the Sea Gave Back didn‘t resonate with me as much as Sky in the Deep I still found it to be a worthy companion novel. Be prepared for the differences, but also try to go with the flow of what the novel is supposed to represent and I think you‘ll enjoy it.

This book does not disappoint. I received it as an ARC earlier this year and just finished a reread with this beauty. Still a 5 star!

#93 this one I have been looking forward to reading since it was announced! I absolutely loved Sky In The Deep it was brilliant and brutal. I can‘t wait to devour this one too

Look what was delivered today!

I forgot I preordered Fawkes so he was a nice surprise.

Thanks, #NetGalley, for the chance to read this one! While marketed as a standalone set in the same landscape as Sky in the Deep, I really consider this more of a sequel, though Eelyn is not the focus. The narrative has more voices & gives a more epic feel, though mainly it is split between Tova and Halvard (ten years past the events of the first book). It‘s a break in style & the ending calls for a more direct sequel. It‘s an exciting adventure!

I have heard both good and bad things about this book. I like the cover. I will have to make up my own opinion about the story.

I loved Sky in the Deep so I hate how disappointed I am in this book. I found the first part confusing but after finding my footing In the story I realized how little I cared about any of it. I was not nvested in either protagonist and most of the events were so predictable that there wasn't even enough suspense to keep me interested. I love the world that Young brings to the page but this was a miss for me.

I was so excited to get my hands on this because I had absolutely loved Sky in the Deep. While I did like getting a glimpse into the lives of those characters after ten years, the story itself was a bit of a disappointment. It wasn‘t that I disliked it - But the pacing felt off and it took me absolutely forever to get through. I don‘t regret reading it, but it wasn‘t the follow up I was hoping for.

Squeal!!! I have this preordered but I just got a #netgalley #arc 😍🎉💃

Today‘s #bookmail was exceptionally 👌🏽

Pretty excited about this #arc ! Cover is gorgeous and I love fantasy based around a sea side kingdom or the sea!

What‘s on your TBR?

A bit of book shopping (plus I got an ARC from a friend) happened today!! 🙌

Super excited I got approved for this on #netgalley !!!
