I definitely could see how much they cared for each other in this story, and again this was a nice change from the first book for me. Clay and Lia together were the epitome of young love. Lia is a very relatable and fun character, and I think a lot of readers will love seeing her growth throughout this book. My heart truly broke for her at several points in the story because I honestly wanted her to just be happy. She matured a great deal over the course of the story, and her characterization was excellently written. Lia's character still felt a little young at times, but this was mostly in the beginning. This was honestly one of my favorite aspects of the entire book. We are able to see and explore much more of the Mer world, and we learn more about Lia's culture. Easton expands a lot on the world-building in this novel and this was something that I appreciated. I honestly didn't even realize that the book was close to 400 pages because I wanted to keep reading!! Ms. The book is fast-paced, and although it is longer than the first in the series, the story never lagged for me. However, just as things are looking up for all of our characters, things take a surprising turn that causes devastating effects for certain people. The trial is about to start, Clay and Lia are still discovering and building upon their relationship, and the entire mermaid race is thrilled with the return of their immortality.
Submerge picks up right where the first book ended. A lot of problems I had from the first book were remedied in Submerge, and this was something that I appreciated as it made me love the book so much more. Easton was a gifted storyteller, but this book took her writing to another level.
And let me tell you, this book blew me away! From the start, I was plunged right back into the Lia's world full of mermaids and romance. I was given an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest reviewĪlthough I had some mixed feelings about Tobie Easton's first novel, Emerge, I still greatly enjoyed the book and was very excited when I had the opportunity to read an ARC of its sequel.
