"Life had a way of surprising you. Sometimes in ways that could crush your soul. Other times, it lifted your spirit to the stars and granted you your wildest wishes."

I absolutely loved this unique take on The Little Mermaid and I fell in love from the cover alone.

Calypso, our main character, enlists the help of her best friend, Luna, to help Dylan with his catch and prayers to their Goddess. Thus, ensuring the fates of those intertwined with them all.

I would've loved to see more of this world fleshed out; more of the mermaid world; how their magic works. Even an entire story to see how Draven was working with the humans to attempt to create peace.

The majority of the characters were an absolute treasure to read, I think was the octopup.

There are so many themes and life lessons displayed throughout this novel, and it was such a fun time reading.

tropes // mermaids, royalty, cursed, magic

Between Land and Sea was a fantastic, quick ya fantasy read. Highly recommend for any Little Mermaid, mermaid, fantasy or ya lovers.
