Set in Barbados there was lots of culture, accents, and lifestyles I haven’t learned much about before! All of the facts about River/Sea Mummas (mythological creatures) were well done and added to wrap-up the story with a perfectly logical fantasy explanation. “ Crack! The O’Brien player stares at his broken stumps in disbelief.” The Mariss plotline was definitely the slowest, and that was the part of the synopsis which made me want to pick up the book. Since there are three major plot lines, something was always going on, but sometimes all plot lines were falling flat, or all picked up and it was sort of annoying. The pacing was odd, but I was invested enough in the story to read like a maniac. ![]() 100 pages on day one, 100 more pages on day 2, and 108 pages on the final day to finish it off. ![]() I’ve never heard of a more original story, and I devoured it. Josephine is balancing cricket practice with grades, and scaring away her father’s girlfriends. Josephine Against the Sea is a middle-grade contemporary fantasy about Josephine, who thinks her father’s girlfriend is an evil sea creature.
