Book 58 of 2015 is The Mermaid's Sister by Carrie Anne Noble.
These are the kinds of fantasy books that make me remember why I used to dislike fantasy.
Instead of there being an exciting adventure with magical creatures and fantastical characters, this book gave me a pathetic little girl in love with her sister's boyfriend and all the childish rubbish that goes with this.
Having discovered after reading this that this is a children's book, I'm still unimpressed. Can we teach young women to respect strong female characters and not just love boys?
3 pearl tears out of 5.
Should I read this? No.
What did I learn? Mermaids tears turn in to pearls.
