Drop Dead Gorgeous by Stacey Rourke

*This review will contain spoilers. Proceed with caution.  

In Drop Dead Gorgeous, Arroyo has taken Octavia and Bacon to a sirens traveling pageant, to pod leader Bahari. Octavia is the newest member of the pod, trying to find her escape. After watching the pageant, Octavia is sleeping and is awoken by another halfling because there is a double murder. Eldoris and Octavia are trying to figure out what to do as Bahari cannot be dead with Arroyo around, she will be the new leader of the pod and we all know that would not end well for anyone especially our girl Octavia . So Octavia uses her powers but it has failed to work at bringing back the siren. So she does the next best thing and brings the human male soul back into the female siren body, and this is where the hilarity ensues.  However there are heartfelt moments in this story. 

This story Stacey Rourke wrote touched my soul with her words. I have been feeling down about a family situation, along with feeling like I do not belong, and being unwanted. In this book she wrote words which left me feeling empowered with knowledge of who I am, and family does not have to be blood, it can be the family I CHOOSE, genetics be damned.  I look forward to the next Journal of Octavia Hollows and see the adventure Stacey Rourke takes her on. It's going to be epic.
