When Miranda's grandmother passes away, she leaves her estate on a Georgia island to Miranda's mother. Reluctantly, Miranda pushes aside an internship that she had planned for the summer to meet her mother at Selkie Island to help her clean up and sell the house.

Miranda arrives at Selkie Island with a plan, help her mom clean up the house, get the house sold, and go back to the big city to do her internship. What Miranda doesn't expect is the myths and legends that surround the small island to interfere with her thoughts. In her grandmother's house, she finds a book filled with the island myths and it starts to make Miranda wonder if any of them could be true.


Then she meets Leo, a local around her age, who is as mysterious at they come. As Miranda starts to get wrapped up in Leo and the myths, her good girl image starts to get lost.

Sea Change is a breath of fresh air. It's different from other books that are on the market right now and that makes me love it more. I like the mystery of the story and it kept me glued to the book, waiting to see what exactly was going on. The overall story is engaging. Some of the characters got on my nerves, but I believe that's the way it was written. I would recommend this book for someone who would like a light, summer read, or fans of Aimee Friedman.
