Anthologies are always hit or miss for me, and I found I didn't like this collection as much as I liked the vampire one they did a year or two ago. That one had some heavy hitters and I enjoyed more of the stories in that one.
That's not to say I didn't enjoy stories in this one! I think the Kalynn Bayron and Julian Winters ones were my favorites. There were a lot of interesting takes on mermaids in here though, and I enjoyed it for the most part.
