A song below water characters5/19/2023 It looks like the second book in the series, A CHORUS RISES, came out in 2021, and follows one of the side characters from this book. I’m absolutely sure I will read more by Bethany C. I think I bought a copy of this book the year it came out, but it took me a long time to finally get to it. This book drew me right in, and I desperately needed to know what was going to happen. The story stays centered around Tavia and Effie, following them as they learn to use their voices and find confidence in who they are. Both Effie and Tavia felt like unique characters, too, with different voices, but they also felt deeply connected by their relationship.Ī SONG BELOW WATER is one of those books that might start off a little slow, but it’s not long before the tension starts building pretty high. They all made the story so rich and interesting. Meanwhile, Effie is fighting her own family struggles, pitted against. Effie’s relationship with her grandparents. In a society determined to keep her under lock and key, Tavia must hide her siren powers. The characters in general hooked me into the story. A lot of the story has to do with figuring out some of the things Effie is experiencing, which isn’t mentioned at all in the copy. It’s told from both Effie and Tavia’s perspectives, which I loved. Morrows A Song Below Water is the story for todays readers - a captivating modern fantasy about black sirens, friendship, and self-discovery. I kind of feel like the cover copy sells this story a bit short.
