### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lovely Debut Novel
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 9, 2013*

Tides







  
  
    I am a 50 year old YA fan and regularly read YA new releases as well as having enjoyed many of the classic YA authors when I fit into the young adult category. This is a lovely tale set in the Isles of Shoals off the coast of ME and NH. The lyrical prose highlights the author's love of the ocean and compassion for all creatures. I first read this on my Kindle but I have also purchased the hardcover book, partly because the cover art by Jolene Monheim is gorgeous and so that I can share this book with others.There are two things that I especially appreciated about TIDES. The first is the idea that families are found in many different ways---we are born into a family but we also find the family we need at various times in our lives. We need to be open to the various ways we learn from and are supported by those around us---even those who seem quite different.The second is the theme of the 'inbetween' that resonates through the book. Noah is in that awkward time of life between adolescence and adulthood, dependence and independence, known and unknown. Mara struggles to define herself while meeting the needs of those she loves. Working on family issues, preparing for a career, forming new relationships and having some dreams shattered are daily fare for teenagers.The story arc builds gracefully to a dramatic confrontation. Secrets are revealed that bring the characters closer. Each member of the TIDES family learns the important lesson that, in the end,'love is love'. This book left me content but wanting to know what happens next.

    So much promise, but not enough delivery!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 3, 2021*

I think Tides had many elements of a fantastic novel, but the characterisation felt a little flat and clichéd. WARNING: very mild spoilers ahead.First off, I love that two characters had a strong queer relationship. That’s lovely to see in YA! Also, this book touched on the pain of bulimia, which is a really rough and brave topic to explore, although I wish that storyline had been developed more.The bad parts: no member of the cast really sprung off the pages for me. Noah and Lo were given little glimmers of personalities, and that’s it. I wanted to learn more about Aine, the most interesting character, but we barely see her perspective; most of the book is devoted to a tired, chemistry-less romance between two teen characters. I honestly think it would’ve been much stronger if Lo had been the main character, not Noah, and she had developed a friendship with Mara instead of the rushed Mara/Noah love story which took centre stage. The writing veered between lyrical and stiff, like the novel wasn’t quite sure whether it wanted to be old-fashioned or modern.

    Selkie
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 5, 2021*

I love selkies and have read many legends. This version is fine. My only complaint is that the protagonist is in college, but the book reads like Y.A. or elementary level fiction for most of the book. However, the kidnapping of the selkie and her abuse makes this an adult book. I felt like the audience was undefined. The story is engaging and the plot flows smoothly.
