Book Review: Call of the Fathoms by Emma Hamm

September 5, 2025August 20, 2025 by Kristina P
call of the fathoms book review

Every time a new Deep Waters book drops, it feels like a little treat I get to unwrap; something comforting, familiar, and always a little magical. I’ve truly grown attached to this series, and if Emma Hamm wrote 100 more, I’d read every single one of them. Call of the Fathoms is the fourth installment, … Read more
