The Ocean in His Veins (The Ocean Series) by A.R. Hadley – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Ocean in His Veins by A.R. Hadley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Please note that there are trigger/graphic content warnings so check them out before you start reading.

The Ocean in His Veins is the first book of a two-book duo although it can be read as a standalone. Where the Ocean Meets the Sky is the other book in this duo.

A.R’s narrative flows well and is simplistic in its telling but makes for an interesting read. It is an emotional tale with grief, sadness, longing, love, and trust issues and so much more.
Cal had lots of flaws and vulnerabilities making him seem more real. I have mixed thoughts about Cal, he frustrated me no end, but he is dealing with his demons. Trying to drown out his feelings by partaking in all the world had to offer instead of listening to his soul. At times I wanted to hug him and take away his pain then I wanted to smack him silly and knock some sense into to him. I put the book down in frustration so many times, but I kept picking it back up because I wanted to know what happened with him.
Follow along as one boy goes through life and into an adult not finding what he thinks he needs but that may all change when she comes into his life. To find out though we need to read the next book Where the Ocean Meets the Sky which is where I am off to.
