Summary:

Sixteen-year-old Miranda Merchant is great at science. . .and not so great with boys. After major drama with her boyfriend and (now ex) best friend, she's happy to spend the summer on small, mysterious Selkie Island, helping her mother sort out her late grandmother's estate.There, Miranda finds new friends and an island with a mysterious, mystical history, presenting her with facts her logical, scientific mind can't make sense of. She also meets Leo, who challenges everything she thought she knew about boys, friendship. . .and reality. Is Leo hiding something? Or is he something that she never could have imagined?

My Review:

This book for me wasn't "all that" sadly. I think the characters, mother and daughter especially needed to grow up. Also there was just to much mystery and not nearly enough answers. This whole story could have been easily a short story. The author desperately needs to make another book other wise I will feel like it was a waste to read this. On the good sides, I loved some of the folklore and stories and the twisted secrets. Overall its an enjoyable summer read.
