I accidently found Forgotten Lyrics on Wattpad and I thought it sounds interesting. Even though a plot is a bit confuzing because I haven’t read Watersong series yet, this prequel can be read on its own. The book is actually pretty short, maybe the book is not a good name, better would be short story. Anyway, I really enjoyed it and now I want to read Watersong series. If I got it right, plot in Forgotten Lyrics takes place five years before the plot of Wake, first book in the Watersong series.I liked Lydia. I mean, you can’t really form some real opinion about a character while reading only 50 pages about them, but I can say I like her. I would like to read more about her, but if I got it right from the comments on Goodreads, she will not appear in following books. I also liked Lydia’s grandmother Delia, she is really cool, I’m sorry that she won’t appear later too. And what is a YA book without some hot guy? Of course, here is Daniel, who I really like. In these 50 pages he got under my skin, I have to admit that. While reading I thought he and Lydia are going to be together in later books, but now I realized they won’t and I feel a bit of relief because Lydia is 5 years older than Daniel and that would be awkward. I liked Mackenzie too even though we can read about her only few pages.As I said, I’m planning to read Watersong series, idea seems pretty original and interesting just as the other books by Amanda Hocking. This short story is great to kill boredom and relaxing with good story. I recommend. I am a huge fan of Amanda Hocking and have been wanting to try the Watersong series for a little bit now. I am glad that I found this novella first, that is supposed to be a prequel to it all. As usual, for me, Hocking has not disappointed. I have for sure been drawn into a new world that she has created and that will continue in the other books of this series. I am really excited to see how Lydia and Daniel's stories will continue to intertwine and grow. As well as what they can both remember and how Aggie will come back into play. This made me super excited to start on the Watersong series and I am so glad that I started here!
