Sleeping With The Fishes
Sleeping With The Fishes: Number 1 in series | MaryJanice Davidson
14 posts | 16 read | 22 to read
A marine biologist, Fred knows what's in the water so chooses not to expose herself to those toxins. She's allergic to shellfish. The sea creatures she can communicate with won't do her bidding. She doesn't have long blonde hair or a perfect body. And she's definitely not perky! Fred's life is mostly spent trying to conceal her origins - and lately she's been trying to figure out just why there are weird levels of toxins in the local seawater. Then two strangers come into her life. Her new colleague is a sexy - if over-curious - hunk with a mermaid fixation. The other claims he is Artur, the high prince of the black seas - and Fred's rightful ruler!

ElizaMarie I got electricity in my office now! It was messed up. Anyway, so I spend the day trying to slowly organize it. But I have homework so it wasn't fully being organized. I have such a long but super fun journey ahead! I love office supplies stuff! So that's a plus!!! 3y

Listening to the side book for #PLC this month. Thought it was fitting that I do some mermaid coloring while I listen.

Mermaids these days seem to be ethereal or scary as hell. Fred's not really either. She's full of snark though, has an adorable best friend, two handsome suitors, and has to figure out why someone's poisoning Boston's waterways.

A light and fluffy read from the woman who brought you vampires based in Minnesota.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Sometimes you just need a light fluffy read!👍 7y

#BooksAcrossOceans Here is a cute series that I need to reread. The covers are pretty, but they don't really make a #MermaidRainbow so I give to you a heart rainbow to go with the mermaids. 😉
#AugustLibrary17 #LessIsMore with this series as it's only 3 books long. 👍

#SplashIntoSummerReads #day20 #BeachRead While I'm sitting here at 3.15am on a winters morning(9C)rugged up with my uggs,gloves & dressing gown,it's difficult thinking of perfect beach(heat,sand,waves)reads.I hate summer,I don't like sunny sandy beaches & I'm not a fan of saltwater.I should give up my Aussie citizenship,I'm a traitor to my country!Anyway,I think any MaryJanice Davidson book would be a great beach read,short,funny & snarky.Perfect.

LibrarianRyan ❤️❤️❤️Fred the Mermaid. I wish she would write more of those. 8y
Laalaleighh Would you like to trade? I'm dying to move to AU and summer isn't very long here on the east coast lately. 8y
Lizpixie @Laalaleighh no problem, I'll just need to get a passport! 8y
Zelma I live in a wet, swampy, hot locale and prefer snow. You're not alone! 😆 8y

Ahh! I enjoyed this! Lots of giggles and the occasional snort (which is my usual reaction to MJD's snark filled stories). I've read this trilogy before but don't actually remember how it ends... (good thing I've got the next two books ready to read)

Lizpixie One of my favourite series and authors. MJD has such a snarky sense of humour, I also love her Undead series.😊 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Lizpixie, I love her too! Think I read most of her books circa 2007? Lost track of the Undead series when I found out whose skin that book is made from 😖 8y
SaraFair Cute cover! 8y
mischa Fred! Have you read the Royals trilogy? The Royals and Fred are my faves, I prefer them over Betsy. 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @mischa, I have! Sometimes trilogies are better than longer series because you don't have as much time for things to go wrong... I remember the Royals being particularly funny! (I might need to track them down for a reread) 8y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @tpixie, I'm not sure if Frodo would approve... 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @NerdyRev, good advice. This parcel was completely orc free 8y

#augustofpages #augustphotochallenge #day28 #feelgoodbook These are my feel good books.I stumbled across MaryJanice Davidson years ago when I was given an audiobook of her Undead&Unwed series which are hilarious.I don't read many fluffy books,most are dark,twisted,crime & horror,but I like to pick these up and lift my spirits occasionally. Fred is a bad mermaid, she's not blonde, buxom & she's definitely not perky. Funny series, great for a laugh.

LeeRHarry These look like a lot of fun! 😊 8y

3/5
It's a book you read because it makes you feel happy. It's got issues, but I love MaryJanice Davidson and I get to cross a box off of my book-bingo.
