Add a CommentI reccomend this book to any fans of Greek mythology or fairy tales. Told from Sirena's point of view, her story is touching and beautiful, and the insights to Greek heroes and so-called monsters is amazing. A well-told tale the whole way through, with wonderful insight and confusion as Sirena learns about humans through her interactions with the man she saves.
I read this book many years ago and I literally fell in love with this book. It is about mermaids and one of them falling in love with a human.
