The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea by Axie Oh

5.0

I adored this book. I was vaguely aware of the original folktale, and I think this was a well written retelling. The story flowed well and it was easy to read and get absorbed into. I loved all the characters, especially the 3 spirits who help Mina. Mina is such a strong willed MC, her love for her people and sense of right and wrong makes her easy to love. There was so many more aspects than just Minas story woven into this, different characters getting their stories told at the same time, it's a truly magical story.
I love retellings, and I'm really excited to see more than just Disney or European fairytales.
