I loved this book very much. It had cool characters, and a good plot, but had some scenes in it that were more for older readers. It had some swearing, and went into vivid details about a murder, but other than that, it was fine. I would recommend for 11+.

An epic saga of heart-stopping romance, devastating secrets, and dark magic . . . a world where everything you love can be washed away. The first book in the Teardrop series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fallen series
Everywhere Eureka goes he is there: Ander, a mysterious blond boy who tells her she’s in danger. Ander knows things about Eureka she doesn’t yet know herself, but not her darkest secret: ever since her mother drowned in a freak accident, Eureka wishes she were dead, too. She has little left that she cares about, just her friend Brooks and some heirlooms—a locket, a letter, a mysterious stone, and an ancient book about a girl who got her heart broken and cried an entire continent into the sea.
But Ander has some secrets of his own. The haunting tale is more than a story. It’s real.
And Eureka’s life has far more evil undercurrents than she ever imagined.
“Fans of Kate’s popular Fallen series will find a similar blend of supernatural romance, mystery, and destiny.”—Publishers Weekly
“Plenty of danger, romance and intrigue to entertain . . . terrific.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Mystery, romance and fantasy combine for an enchanting world.” —Teenreads.com
“A big tale with vivid action scenes.” — VOYA

I love how Lauren Kate used Atlantis and Eureka together. It made the story a whole lot more real.
I love your book! I am reading this book right now and I can't stop myself. Thank you author for writing this book.
i so wanna read this and i wont stop till i have
Just finished this book today, and I have to say, it was pretty good. It has a few curse words, and a detailed description of a murdered woman, so I would not recommend for younger readers. But I will be anticipating the next book!

A beautiful book with a beautiful story, with a dash of mystery. With breathtaking events. With details that makes us feel like you are inside the book.
