This book is about a girl Emily who just found out she is a mermaid and is moving to a mermaid island and discovers a kraken. Emily must fight kraken to save her "old friend" from sinking to depths of the sea. With mermaid magic, a furious monster, and a fisherman determined to find a mermaid, this story is completely nerve wrecking.

Emily Windsnap is thrilled to arrive at her new home, a secret island near the Bermuda Triangle where humans and merfolk live together, and where being a girl who grows a tail as soon as she enters the water isn't a problem. Being Emily, she can't resist exploring forbidden places - and as a result, she inadvertently wakes the kraken, the legendary deep sea monster who has been asleep for two hundred years. What follows makes a terrifically exciting adventure - not just for Emily, but for her old adversary Mandy Rushton, whose parents have taken her on a cruise and whose father thinks he can make his fortune if he catches a mermaid. Their voices alternate as the kraken's terrifying tentacles rise from the deep, threatening the future of the islanders, and kraken worshippers try to sink the cruise ship. Mermaid magic, a fabulous monster, and wonderful descriptions of undersea life make this a rich fantasy that is a real page turner and has all the charm and warmth of Liz Kessler's first book, THE TAIL OF EMILY WINDSNAP.

I really want to read this
best book ever
In this adventure, there is adventure ( I had to restate that didn't I? XD), excitement, etc.! Emily moves to a beautiful island in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle, where mer and humans that are in love stay. Emily and Shona wander around the waters, and wander into a cave filled with jewels. They take a jewel out of the wall and find a small cave entrance. At the end, they find a boulder, they push and push, eventually the boulder falls into an opening. Everything starts shaking, and they run! A hairy, blood red, giant tentacle touches Emily. They Have Released The Kraken! The kraken knocks a boat Mandy is on, and they are trapped on an island. When Emily carelessly is flicking her tail, Mandy's dad catches her in a net and pulls her to the island. When Emily and Mandy's eyes meet, it is shocking! Emily, Shona, and Mandy "defeat" the Kraken, and Mandy gets memory drugged and she forgets they were friends! I would HIGHLY recommend this book for everyone! The higher the books in this series you get, the more advanced the words get, but keep reading the story! I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did and feel the same way about the Emily Windsnap Series!!!!!!!!😃😃☺️☺️❤️🐚🐙
The kraken takes over Emily's new home and Emily along with Shona and Mandy. It was a great and young readers would love it. I could barley put down the book it was so good. I think it was better than the first book but there are more books waiting!
I recommend this book to you if you have read the first book and liked it.
