The story was great. I loved all the nods to the Little Mermaid, they were definitely there and made my heart so happy. I also really liked the portrayal of the sirens. The main character and her journey was the best thing about this book for sure. It’s similar yet so different to what Elise […]

This is the most beautiful love letter to fandoms there could ever be. Hilarious, romantic, and very relatable.

I always appreciate a strong […]
