Mermaids on the Moon

I really enjoyed this book. If a place like Mermaid City doesn't already exist, it should! The only complaint I have, is Fran's relationship with Bruno wasn't really developed, but the rest of the characters make up for it. I also enjoyed Sisterwoman, and wish she had used that more, but the stories she told with her, really contributed to the story and character development. I highly recommend this book, especially since it is a very quick read!

This book was so refreshing! I initially bought it because I have always had a fascination with the "mermaid city" my mom has always told me stories of that she used to visit as a child in Florida. I even decorated my room as a child from her vintage postcards from Weeki Wachi Springs, FL (I am assuming this novel is based on this place). I adored reading this book. The characters are so fun and you really get to know them, you want to be their friend, you want to be a "merhag". This is a perfect read for your day at the pool or on your next beach vacation! I can't wait for her next novel!

Elizabeth Stuckey-French combines the quirkiness of pop culture with the seriousness of coming to terms with oneself in this novel, which engages the reader from the first word to the last. Complex characters, vivid settings and descriptions, and ever increasing tension make this one of the best stories I've read in a long time. I had a hard time putting it down and strongly recommend it. I look forward to reading more of this talented author's work.

I really liked this book--I could especially relate to Theo, who is so much like my son (who has been diagnosed with high-functioning autism.) I'll recommend this one for my book club & also for the Asperger's group. Great read!

This is an awesome book! I couldn't put it down. I read it in one night and loved it. Elizabeth Stuckey-French is a wonderful, quirky and amazing writer. I highly recommend this book!
