Bickering frenemies Meg and Shar are doing some serious damage at a midnight sample sale when they find themselves arguing over a pair of shoes—with fatal consequences. One innocent bystander later, the girls are suddenly at the mercy of Hades—the god of the underworld—himself. To make them atone for what they’ve done, Hades forces the teens to become special-assignment Sirens, luring to the Underworld any individual whose unholy contract is up.

But just because they have an otherworldly part-time job now doesn’t mean Meg and Shar can ignore life’s drudgeries (work) or pleasures (fashion!). Finding that 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. Then there’s the matter of the fine print in their contracts . . .

My 12 year old daughter's review of Sirenz:

Sirenz was a magnificent read. It was interesting, funny and very very good. I didn't want to put it down. I read it every free moment I got.

One thing I liked most about it was the Greek mythology. I love reading books that feature Greek mythology (like the Percy Jackson series). Another thing I loved about this book was the fashion (Percy Jackson doesn't have that :-)

The combination of Greek mythology and fashion was different and I liked it. It was a nice change from the other books I've been reading.

Sirenz was filled with humor and tragedy which made it a great book to read.

I can't think of anything I didn't like except maybe that it ended too fast. Is this going to be a series? If so I am so reading the next book as soon as it comes out.
