I thought this book was okay, although I listened to it and I think sometimes the multiple POVs were a bit confusing. 
I felt really sorry for the mermaid but I didn’t really connect with many of the characters at all.
I thought it was a cool time to set it in (kind of) modern day as well.
thought the end fell a bit flat, don’t think there was enough closure with the curse.. or how the curse fit into modern day?
