A review by krumanda
The Mermaid of Black Conch by Monique Roffey
2.0
I don’t like reading SA
I’m also a massive prude and don’t like reading/watching even consensual sex
This book has so much of that
Basically I was not into the most of this book.
Unfortunate, I was hoping for a beautiful fantasy on the islands & sea and got a tangled mess of racism, misogyny, SA, and more.
Those topics are very important and the perspective was good to experience, but I felt…. That it was off somehow. I’ll think on it but
TL;DR It was not what I was expecting/hoping for.
