Book Review of Sleeping With the Fishes (Fred the Mermaid, Bk 1)

This book could have been much better. The beginning was very difficult to understand. I kept trying to figure out who was and who was not a mermaid. It came clear within a few chapters but was very confusing. The story line was ok, but not great. The characters are there, but the writer did not do enough with them to make them more believable. It seems she just threw everyone together with no background at all on the characters. I hate to say it but this is just a bad written book. I think this is something that a high school kid could have achieved very easily if writting an essay for school. If you have an afternoon to waste on something brainless to just relax go for it. I did however, get intrigued by the future of Fred so I did order the 2nd in the series of three, even though I see bad reviews for those as well.
