(I've rated the book 4.5⭐️ for now, but I've only finished it today and I feel like I might raise it to 5 once I sit on it)
First off, AHHHHHHHHHHH. Second, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
FUCK, this was good.
I went in blind only after seeing only one person talk about it. I always have high hopes for books that come on BookTube/BookTok once or twice as opposed to books with a lot of hype. I figured this would be a 3.5⭐️, 4 at the most, because the idea of being out at sea, though scary, sounds like it would make for a boring story.
The characters are so thought-out, and I, surprisingly, appreciate the POVs for a number of characters, including both the sirens and the dolphins. The screenplay is right there; give me my mermaid movie.
