Fathomless by Samantha San Miguel is the second in the series. I didn't read the first. I thought this one was a thoroughly enjoyable listen on its own. I want to go back to the read the first one now!

The plot is a nice mix of mystery and adventure. Sisters Lulu and Frankie want to protect the ocean near their summer home off the Florida coast. In the process, Frankie gets injured. This leaves Lulu and Vic united by similar feelings to figure out what is happening with a possible haunting, hidden treasure, and smuggling.

Thank you, Net Gallery and Brilliance audio, for the advanced reader copy.

This story was from Lulu's pov. Lulu's older sibling, Frankie is very confident and always in charge which makes Lulu feel like she is doing nothing, she doesn't trust herself with responsibilities thinking she will always mess things up. I have a younger sister and we are just like Frankie and Lulu so this book almost gave me my sister's pov and I'm going to trust her more with difficult tasks and show faith in her capabilities.
Talking about the story, I loved to be back on the island with the children. I wish we could get more of Algie but we meet a new character , Victor who lost his eyesight when he fell sick with a disease. So seeing that character and how he navigates through things and not let his disability stop him from going on adventures was very inspiring. The whole pirate queen, hidden treasures and quests, and maybe a ghost gave this story a thrilling and mysterious vibe.
Talking about mystery, I didn't see the plot twist coming, it shocked me just as much as the children, so it was a good mystery.
In all I loved both the books. I would love to read more of their adventures.

Thank you to Samantha San Miguel, Brilliance, and NetGalley for allowing me to listen to a free eaudio ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Good news! Vivia Font was a far less irritating narrator than the narrator who did Spineless. Font was a wonderful narrator.

Another great adventure for Lulu, Frankie, Algie---and Vic! Loved Vic.

Not sure I'm a fan of the twist....Lulu and Frankie deserved better.

Pirates and marine life and mystery, what's not to like in this fun middle grade adventure?! I honestly liked this one even more than the first. There is a lot going on & a breakneck pace of adventure, but I felt much more connected to the characters in this one. Truly a fun adventure story! I loved the return of our favorite characters, and actually preferred Lulu as a protagonist.

I listened to this one as an audiobook from NetGalley, and felt like the narrator did a fantastic job! I preferred the narration on this book to the last & it really added to the story.

Thanks to NetGalley, Samantha San Miguel, and Brilliance Publishing for the chance to read and review. My opinions are my own.

Dare say this is even better than the first???

I loved that we stayed with the Davenport sisters’ pov but it kept the same adventurous tone. They are back to sail and explore the gilded age of south Florida and figure out what to do about their dad and his secrets.

I liked the narrator a lot more in this one than the first book and it definitely positively impacted my enjoyment.

Thanks to netgalley and brilliance for an alc
