Jules has been feeling a bit…off lately. Her nightmares have made her agoraphobic, she’s been spending most of her time in an aquarium forum, and her best friend is a stranger on the internet: Mackthefishfuy. 

Taking all this into account, her reaction to Mack’s abrupt disappearance forum the forum is…understandable. She storms right up to his door and demands he explain himself, setting off a chain of events she did not have on her personal bingo card. 

Poor Mack has been holed up by himself ever since he turned into, well, a fish guy. When Jules storms into his life and reintroduces hope, humanity, and passion, he is equal parts thrilled and horrified.

Mack is a precious cinnamon roll with a ✨mouth✨ on him, and Jules is a delightful little weirdo. The two of them are precious together and this was such a fun read with a dramatic sci-fi element that took me by surprise.
