I LOVE this book! It's about Emily, who is half mermaid half girl, went exploring with her best friend Shona. They accidentally awoke Neptune's sea monster, the kraken. They are the only ones who can calm it. On the other hand, Mandy, a human, was lost on an island. They discovered the world of mermaids and wanted to catch Emily. Emily had to face all those problems. Luckily, she found a way and saved everyone. I really recommend this book. Remember to read the first book. I hope you enjoy it!

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.

Emily Windsnap is a half mermaid and half human. She just moved to a new house so that she can be closer to her merfriends. There she went to school under the sea and made a lot of friends. Of course in the ocean there are some places that are not allowed. They weren't allowed to be near the Bermuda Triangle where the legend said it's dangerous. So Emily and a couple of her friends went there and as they got closer they realise that there is something wrong about it, they feel like there is some kind of monster in there. When Emily got back home and she told her father about it, her father immediately went over there to check it out. There was a cruise ship under there and inside there was a monster. Emily and her dad had some father-daughter time defeating the monster.
