This was a ton of fun to read. The pod are a group you want to be friends with so badly, and I appreciated the casual inclusion of so many different folks without preachiness. I wish this was a series!

This was so fun! The characters are quirky, they get into hilarious situations. I was thoroughly entertained throughout the entire book! Plus, I love Leyh's artwork. It really brings the characters and their setting to life. I needed something fun and entertaining, and this definitely fit the bill.

Three drunk merfolk run out of booze. So they decide to cast a spell to become human to get more, but they get stuck and need to find their way back to the sea. The best kind of chaos ensues. Body positivity, warmth and welcome makes this book such a fun romp around a beach town. 🏖🍹
