Book Review of The Mermaid

The Mermaid
njmom3 avatar reviewed on + 1422 more book reviews


The start of The Mermaid by Christina Henry is a magical fairy tale. The remainder of the book changes into a conversation about human beliefs and actions in the names of those beliefs. It also introduces a new love story which I find to not really developed and not necessary. I have greater appreciation for Amelia finding her own way in the world. An interesting premise, a magical beginning, and a story that for me does not find its way back to that magic.
