This is such a fun spin on the little mermaid. Now I am a sucker for anything mermaid or siren adjacent, to be fair, but this was a unique take and I devoured it. The characters had me invested immediately and the relationships felt real. Even though I knew how things would ultimately go (didn’t we?!) I was on the edge of my seat and feared for their fates! Highly recommend!
