This was so sweet and gorgeous, and a little bit heartbreaking. A queer girl hiding until she can move away meets a Selkie who's been watching her from afar, and they form a slightly reluctant relationship as Morgan comes to terms with her own queerness. The art in this book is absolutely stunning and Morgan and Keltie are precious and lovable every inch of the way. I loved some of the tropes that were subverted (such as the seemingly stereotypical "snobby rich girl" turning out to be very different than I expected her to be) and I loved Morgan's relationship with her brother and their mom. All in all, a super precious read I highly recommend.

✨ Representation: Morgan and her family are Asian, Morgan and Keltie are queer/sapphic
