All I wanted was to impress my best friend, Shona, and the other mermaids who live in the sea around Allpoints Island. But what did I do instead? I woke up the kraken, a terrifying octopus-like monster the size of an apartment building. Now he's coming after everything and everyone I love. And who can stop him? You guessed it. Me. Well, me and Shona, and another person too–someone I'd hoped never, ever to see again.

"More fun for the whole family, and a bit more complex than the first book. Mermaids, shipwrecks, sea monsters awakened too soon from their hundred-year slumber, gawkers, fortune-seekers, and tween angst."

— frozen, 1/30/2014" She's half-mermaid and half-human! Isn't that weird? Well, if that's weird, why isn't she a weirdo? This book is very good because I really, really like it! I love reading about mermaids. "
— Grace, 1/20/2014" This book was good in a weird way "
— Sydney, 1/10/2014" I read this many years ago. They were good. :) "

— Haley, 1/8/2014" It's okay, though not my favorite. Emily was sorta annoying, no offense. "
— Bella9Tink, 1/8/2014" I don't know if it was the reader from the audio-tape...or what, but I thought the book was VERY whiny! I may have to read the book itself. "
— Shanna, 12/31/2013" It was enjoyable but I feel that it lacked in something compared to the first book "
— Harriet, 12/23/2013" Not as good as the first but still an entertaining read. I'd never heard of Kraken before this book. When I was flipping channels the other day I happened upon a movie called Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep. It looked like a B movie at best. "

— Annika, 12/9/2013" a book I would read again. "

— Horace, 12/2/2013" This story was delightful and had some very sweet lessons regarding forgiveness. "
— Dina, 11/29/2013" SCARY MONSTER! DOUGHNUTS! it may sound weird that i wrote doughnuts, but you have to read the book to find out why its so important. and it IS important. "
— Vivian, 11/27/2013" only on page 5 but so far i hope its as good as the first one! "

— Patricia, 7/16/2013" not bad, but definitely not as good as the first. "
— Fashiongirlgoldberg, 6/28/2013" This was a good book, but it was a bit hard to follow when it kept going from Emily to Mandy. "
— ✿Piper✿, 4/14/2013" The suquel to the 1st book!!! Super GOOD!!!!!!!!! "
— xXxForgetMeNotxXx, 12/17/2012" VERY GOOD SO FAR!!!!! but i stoped reading this book at this page about 2 years ago :( "
— Maya, 11/20/2012" This book was REALLY good. But I don't think it was as good as the first one. "
— Mikkall, 8/24/2012" Everyone knows what happens in sequels- they are never as good as the original. While it wasn't so bad to make it lose a star in my rating, it just wasn't quite as good for some reason. Oh well. "
— Readhead, 4/27/2012" Good for pre-teens. Picks up where the 1st book left off. "
— Carly, 4/21/2012" Lot's of excitement and just enough scariness for Kiera. "
— Charlotte, 11/12/2011" I liked this book a little more then the first because this one was more adventure and risk, and less love and mystery. "
— Justine, 6/17/2011" This book was good in a weird way "
— Sydney, 5/22/2011" <em> Definitely </em> one of those one-of-a-kind type of books. You <em>can</em> find books with mermaids in them... But none quite like this one! "
— ?Stephanie, 4/17/2011" I enjoyed this when I read it. For kids, but who cares "
— Becky, 4/17/2011" so far i love it and im on pg. 93 "
— Abbey, 3/13/2011" i started reading this, but really didn't get very far-as in not halfway through (which is short for me :D) "
— Susan, 2/24/2011" Cute stories, my girls would have loved them in 5-6th grade. But I have them reding them now. Good read for a quick 2 hr read. "
— Tracey, 2/10/2011" this book kept me up reading waiting for what was going to happen next "
— Willa, 2/6/2011" The suquel to the 1st book!!! Super GOOD!!!!!!!!! "
— Leonela, 1/23/2011" I loved it the book always kept me on my feet. "
— Nicolette, 1/16/2011" While I loved the first one on audio I found the shrill tone and constant franticness of this story to be too much for audio. I may actually try reading it as a book instead. It was just too overwrought-teen-moaning-and screeching to listen too! "
— Angela, 12/31/2010" This book was REALLY good. But I don't think it was as good as the first one. "
— Mikkall, 12/28/2010" I got a little lost in the book. "
