Try as I might I can’t help feeling anything but indifference in regards to D.L. Snow’s Siren’s Song. The poor structural design of the piece made it impossible for me get into story.
The beginning was easy enough to process but things started to fall apart the moment Joss entered the lake. I wasn’t altogether sure how that episode allowed her to slip through the space time continuum into another cent...more

This book is still confusing me, even after a couple of days past finishing it. Not because it was so complex that it blew my mind (trust me, its fluff) but because there was absolutely no internal structure and plot. I'm not one who usually discusses plot, I tend to spend much more time discussing themes and messages. However, this isn't exactly a theme-y kind of novel and the plot is so inconsistent that it makes Back to the Future look like they had time travel all figured out.

First off I want to say that I love the cover...
I really enjoyed reading Siren's Song. It's a short book perfect to read on a lazy afternoon, or while in the airport or during a commute. It's also the kind of book you begin reading, and have a hard time putting down, because it sucks you in from the very begining. Siren's Song is about a woman who time travels back into 1899. She finds herself in a town long forgotten, but just when she feels she's all alone, she meets someone who looks very fam...more

Kindle freebies can go either way. Sometimes, they stink from the get-go, full of typos and awkward phrasing, and I just stop reading. Life's too short. This was a terrific surprise.
Just downloaded onto my kindle this week, I was in the mood for something short and picked it up. It's a novella, approximately 2 or 2 and a half hours of reading. And very well done.

D.L. Snow's writing makes my heart sing. I started with SLAYER, then I went in search of other titles by this author. After reading SIREN'S SONG, I'm in heaven. Written from the heroine's point of view, this is the story of a young woman dragged back to 1899, her struggle to adapt to her new surroundings, and her constant determination to return home to her own time. With a blend of action, romance, and ghostly intervention, SIREN'S SONG is golden.

SUPER quick read. Was hoping for a little more, but it was cute.
If you like time travel and ghosts, Siren's Song is the novella for you. After giving up fame, Joss returns to her hometown but is transported back in time. Bandit Crekk circa 1890 is a different world especially when a ghost complicates things for her.
I won't give the story away but I enjoyed every page. Entertaining, fast paced and a love story that was emotionally satisfying

I generally don't go for time travel storylines, but this one was free on Kindle so I thought I'd give it a shot. It was a very enjoyable read. Not terribly long, but not a short story either. The main characters were very likeable. It took awhile for a romance to actually begin, but when it did, it was fairly steamy (not erotic, but definitely not clean). The end was a bit confusing, but nevertheless I gave it 4 stars.
Debated on giving this a two, based on the author not explaining one single thing about all the confusing time travel and strange fall out from it. I enjoyed it anyway, despite being confused, so that says something, coming from me!
This book completely confused me and I was like WTF all the way through the book. Almost stopped reading series all together. Weird book
I don't generally read time travel stories but, when I do, I really enjoy them. I finished "Siren's Song" in one sitting. An extremely engaging read.
I enjoyed this very much. It was a beautiful time travel novella.
This was a really good, quick read, although a little underdeveloped. I was done before I knew it. It was a great read break.
i wish this was longer

Cute short story. The ending was so-so for me. Very easy and quick read.
This book had so much potential. It drew me in, but it left nothing. The end was confusing, the story had no ending. Author could of written more and closed the story line up. It could of been a great book...but wasn't
