I agree about the beginning of the book: I was completely hooked from the first chapter. But then the narration started to grate on me (with the "ohmysweetgoodness" phrases), and the romance didn't sell me at all. *shrug* I think it's a personal preference. Thanks for the review! :)Lauren Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05749629168151466704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-51558730417774811402012-05-15T09:56:14.301-04:002012-05-15T09:56:14.301-04:00I'm dying to read this book !!

I am looking for my first good mermaid book and I have high hopes for this one. I love the idea of crackling tension between the main characters but I am not thrilled with a first person to third person narative, I will have to see if it works for me or not.

My little brain just doesn't appreciate being scrambled up like that. *sighs* I guess I'm just going to have to look into getting a bigger one. I was thinking it was about time for an upgrade. <br /><br />Plus, who could resist the self-deprecating type? Emma sounds fun. And seriously, how can the Syrena fault us for not knowing the politically correct term? I mean, I must have missed the rally where they were burning the shell-bras in protest! <br /><br />Like my Cupcake up there (Jen) I haven't had too much success with fish tales (yes, I will be sure to skip out on deep water swimming until they get over that derogatory comment). But I think I could like this one because of the humor, oh, and of course, the sigh inducing romance. :)Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-44754240914698189752012-05-14T14:42:06.986-04:002012-05-14T14:42:06.986-04:00Jen - I MISSED YOU!!!!

You make this one sound so good. I want to read it just to Emma and Galen so I can watch their relationship and those blush worthy moments. You make it sound so good. Me thinks I'll give it a go.
