slovenlymuse's review against another edition
3.75
One quibble that I cannot forgive: A scholar of Homeric and Sapphic poetry should know that the sirens were NOT mermaids. They were bird-women who perched on the cliffs and sang to lure sailors to their deaths. Apart from that one discordant note, the rest of the ideas were woven together quite well.

Not usually a fan of romance, modern settings or first-person narrative but can say I really enjoyed this one. Great for light reading if you're not too put off by some of the darker themes. The last third really brought the whole thing together for me.
4.5 stars for really making me think critically about merman sex anatomy.
