Thank you for this teaser. It helped me to remember just how much I adored and have missed the characters in The House in the Cerulean Sea, I will definitely be rereading it before Somewhere Beyond the Sea releases. This excerpt has gotten me so excited and I need more...I cannot wait until September 10th so I can read the full book!

“But I believe the greatest weapon we have at our disposal is our voices. And I am going to use my voice for you, and for me. Hate is loud. We are louder.”

The sequel to The House In The Cerulean Sea. Nothing else needed!

GAHHHHHH How amazing was it to be back with my favorite magical children? Seriously, from the first chapter I was already smiling to myself and could feel my cup filling. I got the absolute pleasure of joining Tor books for an event with Klune and I have to say I think he did a fantastic job getting his point across in this one. This book was dedicated to the Trans community and is not so roughly based on the struggles they face with our political climate, and I could certainly feel his empathy and love for them throughout the book, without it being beat into your head. I could not love these characters more, especially the kids…my heart is just so full and happy to have spent another book with them all!

Thank you to @torbooks for my gifted copy of this book!

I love these misfits so much and getting to read an excerpt of this early was just *chefs kiss*. I cannot wait to binge this as soon as it releases.

Thank you to Netgalley and Tor for the chance to read this excerpt from book two early in exchange for an honest review.

I was so excited when I got this excerpt! It's so nice to be back in this world with these characters. I cannot wait for the rest of this book! I will read anything TJ Klune writes forever and ever.

It was wonderful to get a sneak peak of Somewhere Beyond the Sea, a follow up to T.J. Klune’s The House in the Cerulean Sea. This second book will take us forward as Arther and Linus work together to fight for the rights of magical beings, while also giving us insights into Arthur’s past. This excerpt was full of Klune’s usual strengths—great characters, delightful humor, and love-filled relationships. The excerpt leaves us at the edge of our seat, and I can’t wait to see what comes next!

I can't wait to read this whole book, the excerpt was just a tease. I can't wait to read the full thing.

Thank you for this ARC!

TJ Klune is an instant buy author for me and I will always pick up anything he has written.

Pull at my heart strings a bit more, TJ Klune! The sequel we have all been waiting for. While I have only read the first four chapters (excerpt only), I can confidently say, you will not be disappointed come September when the book is released!! The author dove right back into the world we left in The House in the Cerulean Sea. As always, TJ Klune’s witty writing had me laughing out loud. The character development that takes place in just four short chapters is remarkable! I cannot wait to get my hands on the whole thing!!

Thank you, NetGalley, for this ARC excerpt!

I need more! I didn’t realize that this wasn’t the full book! I am disappointed that the entire book wasn’t offered. But I did love what I read so far.

Four Chapters is not enough. I absolutely need more now! PLEASE?!?! I can not wait for this book to come out so that I can finish what I started😅

Thank you #NetGalley and Tor Publishing for an excerpt of TJ Klune’s second novel to The House in the Cerulean Sea, Somewhere Beyond The Sea. #SomewhereBeyondtheSeaExcerpt #NetGalley

Somewhere Beyond the Sea artfully brings the readers back into the world of Arthur and Linus with their 6 magical children. TJ also interweaves the story of Arthur and focuses more on the story being told from primarily Arthur’s perspective. Although this is only an excerpt this will be another best seller and I cannot wait to read the rest of the book on September 10th!

This was wonderful and awful at the same time. Wonderful, because the writing and characters and setting are brilliant and immediately draw you in. Awful, because it is only an excerpt!! I cannot wait until the book is released! Already preordered!

So excited for this release! The small snippet of this excerpt isn’t much, but it is plenty to get fans ready for the next story of Linus & Arthur.

AH! I wish this was the entire book and not just an excerpt! TJ Klune is absolutely brilliant! I love his writing! I have not read a single one of his books that I did not love, and I know that Somewhere Beyond the Sea will be no different once I finally get to read it. Truly magical!

I was delighted to read an excerpt from the sequel to The House in the Cerulean Sea. There’s the most beautiful tearjerker of a scene where the kids throw a birthday celebration for Linus, and it encapsulates everything we have come to love about these characters.

It certainly seems like the story is moving in a political direction with Arthur’s testimony before a government committee. The symbolism tracks with what’s happening in real life in real time, and I look forward to reading the rest of the book!

Where do I even begin? I'm so beyond excited for this to come out! It feels like I've been waiting forever for this book to finally come out. And this excerpt did such a good job setting the stage and what people can expect in the fall!

The long-awaited sequel to The House on the Cerulean Sea, I already ordered 6 copies to my store based only on the excerpt - and I have customer orders for it as well. It pulled me in and filled me with the homey, loving aura that pervades this most wholesome of Klune's books. I can't wait to read the whole thing!

God, coming to the end of the provided excerpt was genuinely painful. Seeing the characters we loved so much in House On the Cerulean Sea back as a loving family unit has truly healed my heart. This is definitely the top book on my TBR, I'm yeeting everything else out the window the moment it's released.

On the day this book completely releases I will be *adding to cart.*. Wow. I have heard TJ Klune's books were remarkable but have been dragging my feet reading any of their work until recently. Fantastic!

It was such a joy returning to this world and these characters!! This small excerpt filled my heart with joy and I cannot wait to read the full book!!
