Fathom Five: A Rosemary and Time Book Book

Peter MacAllister is alone. Sure he has friends and he has Rosemary but none of them are who he really needs. He needs a family. His uncle is the only relative he has left and most of the time he isn't even there. Ever since his parents died, it has seemed like nobody cared about him.

That is, except Rosemary. Peter really thought he and Rosemary had something and that she wanted to take it to the next level. Boy was he wrong. When he kisses her everything seems fine until she pulls away and tells him that she doesn't want to ruin theie friendship. After that Peter realizes that nobody actually loves him.

Peter has almost given up hope when Fiona shows up. Fiona was his old babysitter before his parents died and she has some shokcing news for him. He's not human and he has a family waiting for him in another world. Peter finally thinks things will work out but then something happens. Rosemary gets pulled into the other world with him, a world where she doesn't belong.

Will Rosemary be able to save Peter and bring him back home? Will she finally discover her real feelings for him or will it be too late?

In this sequel to The Unwritten Girl, James Bow brings back his two wondeful characters, older and wiser. Three years after their first adventure, Rosemary and Peter are still best friends but they aren't alone anymore. Rosemary is no longer the nerd who gets picked on and Peter is no longer the new kid. They have new friends, including some of the bullies that used to pick on Rosemary and led to her and Peter's introduction.

The story in Fathom Five was amazing. It was something so original and unlike anything I have read before. I thought that the first book was very unique and that James Bow would not be able to top that but he has with Fathom Five. Full of sirens, mermaids and mermen, and of course, humans.

I thought that at first I wasn't going to get a ton of background on the other characters but James Bow did not leave me hanging. All my questions about the characters were answered without being written too plainly. The details in the book were wonderful and I absolutely loved how vivid the characters were, even the bad ones.

Fathom Five could be a stand alone book. There is no need to read The Unwritten Girl to understand what is going on in this one. I'm not saying you shouldn't read it but if this one appeals to you more, there is no reason to read the first.

So far I have loved both of The Unwritten Books and I am just now starting the third and final book, at least for now. If you are interested in romance and the paranormal, see if you can find a copy of Fathom Five.
