The Mermaid's Mirror
Ratings3
Average rating2.7
Lena has lived her whole life near the beach, walking the shore, breathing the salty air, swimming in the cold water, and watching the surfers rule the waves. As her sixteenth birthday approaches, Lena vows to learn to surf. Her father forbids it. But something Lena can’t identify at first—an ancient, powerful magic—keeps drawing her to the water. One day, she finally catches sight of it: a beautiful woman, with a silvery tail.
Now nothing can stop Lena from seeking the mermaid, not even the dangerous waves at Magic Crescent Cove. And what Lena sees in the mermaid’s mirror will change her life forever.
(A heartbreaking story that may seem like it should have a sequel, but the author passed away just months after it was published.)

Denne boka likte jeg veldig godt. Den var lettlest, men ikke barnslig, hadde akkurat passe lange kapitler og jeg følte at jeg kunne forstå Selenas (Lena) tanker og handlinger. Lite minus for at det tok halve boka før handlingen virkelig kom ordentlig i gang, men når den først var i gang så var den bra! Det Lena følte var som en drøm, det tok jeg meg selv i å tenke på som min drøm mens jeg ikke leste akkurat da, og skildringene var veldig bra. Lena's forhold med lillebroren Cole var kjempesøtt. Slutten kom som et lite vondt støt, selv om jeg klarte å forutse hva som kom til å skje. Alt i alt, så er dette ei bok jeg likte veldig godt, og jeg ønsker supergod bedring til forfatteren.
This just wasn't doing it for me. 50 pages in and I dislike the main character, her boyfriend, and her best friend. I wanted to know more about the mermaids, but not enough to keep reading.
