A review by mothica
Mermicide by Mina Rose, Daria Cohen

adventurous dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Every time I picked up the book I was on the edge of my seat excited to see what happens next. This novel isn't your average "Little Mermaid" story. The way the author's writing style is honestly so unique in my opinion. Definitely unlike anything I've read before. You never know what the characters will do next and they are very unpredictable which makes the story even more shocking. Daria Cohen (the illustrator) truly displayed Mina's ideas perfectly. Definitely recommend buying the illustrated version. It gives you more context to the scenes and overall look at all the intricate characters. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is bored with basic fairytale mermaid stories and wants some spice up their reading with some angst. I can't wait to read the second book when it comes out!
