Mermaid: A Twist on the Classic Tale | 
pickBook #4 for the #MermaidMarathonReads Readathon! What an interesting twist on the original. We get to meet the Princess that the Prince was to marry and learn how she felt and how she was involved in the story (at least this author‘s idea of the story). I loved the hopeful ending just as much as The Little Mermaid, maybe more. #100YEARS100BOOKS #87 #BookSpinBingo #10 #BFC21 #1 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #14 #FAIRYTALECHALLENGE #ThankfulAthon
I enjoyed retalings of Fairy Tales , not found a Little Mermaid one I like is this worth the read?

pickCross between Disney and Hans Christian Andersen. So goood! I‘m a big fan of Disney so I always love reading retellings. Also a very quick read, which is nice when you have a large TBR pile 💎⚓️🎼🍤🦀🐠🐙🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🤩
panI'm all about the fairytale retelling but this was a miss. The first half was fairly good but then it took a left turn and it just went downhill for me.
panA retelling of the mermaid (aka the little mermaid) I found this dull and nowhere near a perfect twist in the classics tail.
"She felt more than ever that she was at the end of the earth, where dream and reality mixed".
#sizzlinsummerbooks Day 10: retelling.
Just starting to read Poison, all the others I read years ago and are due for a reread soon.

It bothers me when the cover art doesn't match the character descriptions- several mermaids and none of them with red hair. But I am liking this spin so far so there that.
This is a small stack of unread ARCs I've managed to hang on to and not pass off to someone else! I'm hoping to get around to them soon. Also, I love the #mugsoflitsy hash tag!
Been wanting to reread this one for a while. Absolutely loved it. I, like so many others, have such mermaid love. This is such a fantastic fairy tale and can't recommend it enough!
#booksetbythesea #septemberphotochallenge My book by the sea (and somewhat in the sea) is actually one of my first retellings. This was a nice little twist on a dark tale. I've read better since bit I really enjoyed it the first time around.
panI usually like retellings, but this was a train wreck, wrapped in a disaster. Everything was so one dimensional and forced. The characters were about as interesting as watching paint dry, and the love triangle was more like watching a socially awkward kid ask for his first dance. 1.5/5.
so-so
