This review can be originally be found at MissKatiEllen. "Celia is a harbourer of memories, knowing what has already been always seemed so insignificant- until she meets Lo. Lo's memory is drowning in the vastness of the ocean. She's transforming into a nymph, an ocean girl, a mermaid- terms far t...

Short review for a short read. I keep reading mermaid books, praying to find one that leaps out at me. This one fell flat. It wasn't terrible, but it was just sort of blah. The writing wasn't special, the scenery was sort of generic. The main character being a triplet was a nice change, but there ...

It took me a while to return to this series. Sure, I liked Sweetly a lot, was impressed at the themes of strong female friendships, the choice in fairy tales that don't often get remade, and the atmosphere of magic that Ms. Pearce genuinely managed to make me feel. (I was lucky that I read Sweetly b...

Wow. This book was a huge disappointment. Mermaids have always intrigued me. And I love fairytale retellings. Those two elements should have made it a four or five star read. What ruined it for me? Hmm... I'm not quite sure. Maybe it was the Lo/Naida confusion? Maybe it was the love triangle that wa...

It's official: Jackson Pierce is here to stay. You know how I know? Because her books get better as time goes on.Is it odd to say? That this series gets better with each book, I mean? For book bloggers, that doesn't seem to be much of a recommendation, yet for some reason the series that got talked ...

I was really impressed with this adaptation of "The Little Mermaid". It was new and exciting. I also like that it brings the books full circle in that there are ties to the first two books, other than just the wolves. We finally know what happened to Sophia's sister, from Sweetly, even thought Sophi...

This is a fascinating deconstruction of "The Little Mermaid". The ending was opposite to what I was expecting, which was great. However, there was one nonsensical bit - surprise werewolves?, which I will assume makes more sense if you've read the previous books.

Fathomless had an extra edge before I even started the book. Not only did I love the previous fairytale stories Jackson Pearce has written, but The Little Mermaid is my personal favourite fairytale - so I was SUPER excited to see how Pearce would twist the story and make it her own. And let me tell ...

Lo’s preoccupation with the human world and the mythology of her underwater world is shared with us in the Prologue.We meet Celia, Anne and Jane at a carnival. Anne and Jane use their powers for lighthearted gain while Celia sees her ‘gift’ more as a curse and feels outside the bond Anne and Jane h...

4.5/5The Reynolds are a very special family. Why did I not see this before? Silas in Sisters Red, Samuel in Sweetly, and now Celia, Anna and Jane in Fathomless. My mind is blown.Fathomless is a completely different beast from the other two books in this series, I almost don't know what to make of it...
