Blurb:
Water pooled around my feet, rising at an alarming rate. I stared - panicked - at the palms of my hands, willing the water gushing out of them to stop as miraculously as it had begun.
I only sneezed!
Jasmine is struggling to control her new powers, causing floods and fires with an accidental flick of her wrist. In a desperate attempt to master at least one aspect of them, she travels to the Brizan Realm, where she comes closer to discovering the truth about her parents than ever before. But not everyone wants their secrets revealed.
Alone, powerless and, for the first time in her life, afraid, Roxy has only one thought occupying her mind: escaping Cinaer's clutches before it's too late. Her flight will take her across the ocean, but not in the direction she is expecting. Before she can try and get back to Brae, she needs to rescue herself.
Despite being on opposite sides of the world, the girls soon find themselves closer than ever.

My thoughts:
**This book was given to me by the author for a "Read-to-Review".
This hasn't affected my review in any way.**
Second book of the Elements of power series.
Water cannot be read as a standalone. If you haven't read Fire, I wrote a spoiler-free review here.
The following paragraphs will contain minor spoilers.
Water was too short for my liking. Not only because of the number of pages, but also because I really got into the story.
Similar to the first book, Water was narrated by Jasmine and Roxy. Only this time, the story was more focused on Jasmine, which I didn't mind at all, since I like her better than Roxy.
I learned a lot about the other Realms. Namely the Brizan and Sephan Realm. Who knew the Sephans would be so peaceful yetangsty competitive at the same time?
Interesting characters were introduced. They made me wonder who are to be trusted and who are not. Especially Tristan, who is shady as heck.
With new characters comes new love interests! I personally ship Roxy with Tristan. But the question is who will Brae choose?
With everything happening, uncertainty is evident.
All I know is that there's a storm named Jasmine brewing and it's gonna be good! Anticipating the third book! :)
