Sirenz by Charlotte Bennardo & Natalie Zaman

Hades, the god of the underworld, forces bickering frenemies Meg and Shar to become special-assignment Sirens. Finding the delicate balance between their old and new responsibilities turns out to be harder than they expected, especially when an entire pantheon of Greek deities decides to get involved.

Goodreads Summary


Shar and Meg are two very unlikely friends.  Meg is very much a Goth while Shar is more sweetness and life.  They fight all of the time, but try to get along for the most part.  They are having a particularly bad fight when they push a guy in right in front of a subway train.  Understandably, this doesn't go well and the girls find themselves in front of Hades.  Hades is actually rather mild, but he does have one request.  He will make them sirens and they must guide a man to the Underworld, a man Hades himself is having difficulty with.  The girls don't think too much of this request until they meet the unsuspecting fellow...and discover he is blind and deaf.  The task suddenly became much more difficult, can the sirens pull this off or will the gods forever laugh at them?

The girls are the main characters and will keep the reader laughing most of the time.  The events are hysterical and at least one of the girls is funny most of the time.  The book is funny, exciting, and interesting.  There is plenty of fashion mixed with Greek mythology, female readers will enjoy this book in particular.  Hades is a funny character.  He is charismatic and sexy, but a huge trickster.  He helps push the plot along with his antics and sexy dialogue.  Overall, this was a great start to a funny series, young adult and teen readers will enjoy this book.

Char: Lover of sparkly things, Char doesn't have as many shoes as she'd like, but wouldn't have time to wear them anyway with her three boys, husband, cat with issues, demented squirrels and insistent characters all demanding her time. She is represented by Natalie Lakosil of the Bradford Literary Agency and is hoping to get all her characters into print just so they'll be quiet.
