What did you think? Remember to put spoilers behind a spoiler tag!😉 (Let us know if you need help with using spoiler tags.)

1. Who was your favorite character?

2. Who was your least favorite character?

3. If you could change one part of the book, what would it be? (Spoiler?)

4. What did you think of the ending? (Spoiler tags, please!)

5. What was your overall opinion?

1. Who was your favorite character?

I really liked Prince Conway XD

2. Who was your least favorite character?

Blackwell argh he was horrible.

3. If you could change one part of the book, what would it be? (Spoiler?)

(view spoiler)[I would lessen the miscommunication. Also, I would have loved to have seen Ginevra finding out that Conway was Cruria. (hide spoiler)]

4. What did you think of the ending? (Spoiler tags, please!)

(view spoiler)[I was so confused but then the timeline merged and made a lot of sense. But the whole memory loss thing .... he better regain his memories. (hide spoiler)]

5. What was your overall opinion?

I think it was a good book overall and action packed! I like that it was mermaids--there aren't too many YA mermaid books out there.

1. I always struggle with this question 😂 I didn't really have a favorite, I liked each one of the main cast.

2. the king of Aquaticus

3. I felt some of the male characters in the book were really *emotional* to where it was distracting, but other than that I really enjoyed it!

4. It was impossible to predict until 2 chapters before the end, and I always love a good surprise. I'm enticed to read the next one!

5. sometimes it was hard to picture the under water world, but for the most part I think it was fun and interesting. I'm not usually into mermaid stories but this was fun and interesting. I would have liked more visual details and descriptions about the setting and how merpeople live (it felt odd toward the end when the narrator described being able to see so far from so high up and feeling dizzy from it. there's no danger of falling to your death, right? 🤷‍♀️). but it was overall a really fun read. ☺️

1. Conway. Darin was my second favorite.

2. Blackwell

3. (view spoiler)[Probably the romance aspect. My opinion could change after book 2, but right now I think Conway and Locklyn are a better pair than Darin and Locklyn. (hide spoiler)]

4. (view spoiler)[Well, I went into this book knowing there was a cliff hanger, but I was not expecting it to be that Darin lost his memory. Obviously I have to read book two now, LOL (hide spoiler)]

5. Overall, it was a pretty good book. I liked how creative it was and that it was set in a mermaid world. The plot was interesting at several points as well.

I thought I already answered these, but I guess I forgot. Let's see if I remember well enough and don't get book 2 mixed in with my book 1 thoughts...

1. Who was your favorite character?

Darin--I identified with his hesitancy to (view spoiler)[share his feelings for Locklyn with her. Changes like that in well-established relationships can be tricky. (hide spoiler)] I also loved how caring and full of integrity he was.

2. Who was your least favorite character?

Blackwell

3. If you could change one part of the book, what would it be? (Spoiler?)

(view spoiler)[I would have made it so that he shared his feelings with her, and then lost his memory. I really hated that he lost his memory before being able to do that. (hide spoiler)]

4. What did you think of the ending? (Spoiler tags, please!)

I was horrified. 😭 Ok, I know that's a bit dramatic, but...

5. What was your overall opinion?

I really liked it. It's a light read, but one that still touches the heartstrings. I don't like fairytale retellings in general, but this was 300 years (?) later, so I was fine with it.
