The sea witch is a fascinating character in folklore and mythology who is often depicted as a powerful and mysterious figure. In various cultures and legends, she is known by different names, such as the selkie, nereid, or siren. Regardless of her title, the sea witch possesses a deep connection with the ocean and its creatures. In many tales, the sea witch is portrayed as a complex character with both dark and benevolent traits. She is often seen as a harbinger of storms and tempests, using her powers to manipulate the seas and wreak havoc on sailors and ships. Her enchanting voice is said to draw sailors closer to her, ultimately leading them to their doom.
What I liked about this version of this story is that it felt very different from the original. Sometimes it can feel like a retelling is just a kind of mad-libs version of a story, where certain words have been swapped out for others but other than that the story continues as normal. In this case, the sense is more of a story rooted in the ideas in The Little Mermaid but with a more of a human perspective. I feel like I’ve read alternative Mermaid stories from the perspectives of princes, and mermaids but I’ve not read one that brought in a whole new character as this one does. I say new character, it’s a little more complex than that, but to reveal it would be spoilers.
I cannot speak to the accuracy or research done into the magic system in this book, but it feels fairly generic villagers and long lines of witches without too many specific details. I didn t mind that too much in this instance as part of the point is that Evie hasn t studied her magic, that raw and uncontrollable aspect is a key part of her character.
Her enchanting voice is said to draw sailors closer to her, ultimately leading them to their doom. This alluring quality is what makes her so captivating and dangerous. However, there is also another side to the sea witch.

The pacing was inconsistent, with some parts being slow and others being rushed. I also felt that the world-building was lacking, and I struggled to visualize the setting. While the concept of the story was interesting, the execution left much to be desired.
