The Adventures of Lola and the Ocean Monster by Jade Harley
From Goodreads
A year after finding out she has magical powers beyond her imagination, Lola finds herself on the beautiful East Coast of Australia in Byron Bay, where she has been accepted into Protector Fairy Training Camp. She and her best friends Allie and Jet enjoy learning to surf, making new friends, and working closely with Katia, the Queen of the Water Fairies.
Lola is excited to be one step closer to becoming a world-famous adventurer, protecting the earth like she has always dreamed of. However, her new home is threatened when a dark force wreaks havoc in the ocean, striking down countless sea animals with a mysterious illness. When tragedy strikes and a beautiful young dolphin dies, Lola is determined to uncover the truth. She learns of a Water Fairy legend about an Ocean Monster that wants to destroy human life if the oceans aren’t respected and cared for.
Lola needs to separate myth from truth. She is beset by disturbing nightmares and bolstered by an instinct telling her that there has to be more going on than she knows. Will the adventurous Lola be able to unravel the Ocean Monster mystery and save the day once again?

Review
This is the second book in the LOLA adventures series by Jade Harley. Like with her first book we see LOLA growing up more whilst still pushing the boundaries set by her parents and teachers. She further develops her magical abilities throughout the book and manages to, along with her small band of friends, once again save the day so far as protecting fairyland is concerned.
LOLA discovers that there’s something sinister living in the ocean. Whilst there are many theories and stories about what it is, it’s not clear until near the end what the ocean monster is. From how Jade described the monster I thought I knew what it was only to be surprised when I found out exactly what it turned out to be.
This is a fun, easy to read children’s story that adults can also enjoy. I wonder what LOLA’s next adventure is going to be.
