Forgive My Fins

By: Tera Lynn Childs

Narrated by: Emily Bauer

Unrequited love is hard enough when you’re a normal teenage girl, but for mermaid Lily Sanderson, there’s no such thing as a simple crush.

Lily has a secret, and it’s not her huge crush on gorgeous swimming god Brody Bennett, who makes her heart beat flipper-fast. Lily’s mermaid identity is a secret that can’t get out, since she’s not just any mermaid—she’s a Thalassinian princess.

When she discovered three years ago that her mother was actually a human, Lily finally realized why she didn’t feel quite at home in Thalassinia, and she’s been going to Seaview High ever since.

Living on land has its problems—like her obnoxious biker-boy neighbor, Quince Fletcher—but it has that one major perk: Brody. The problem is, mermaids aren’t really the casual dating type—when they bond, it’s for life.

When Lily’s attempt to win Brody’s love leads to a case of mistaken identity, she finds out, quick as a tailfin flick, that happily ever after never sails quite as smoothly as you planned.

So good! Getting book 2 right now!

I thought I might like this book when I got it, but it turned out being so much better than I thought it would be. so fun getting lost in this vivid fantasy world! I'm going to read all the other books in the series. new favorite author!

enemies to lovers but with gills

i loved this book as a kid and i still do! emily did great too!

Awsome

Couldn't wait to here the story I would listen on my breaks at work and when I got home

Whiny

I read this book years ago in middle school so I wanted to revisit it now, it’s cute but juvenile definitely for preteens. I wish I had listened to the sample bc the performers voice is very whiny and irksome- would advise you check the sample before purchasing

whinny self centered main character

Would you try another book from Tera Lynn Childs and/or Emily Bauer?

No

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Sure but the story was awful.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Annoyance

Any additional comments?

The main character of this book is an annoying whiny self centered teen. I know this book is meant for teens but I wouldn't want to expose any teen to the behavior of the character in this book. No matter how much she does wrong everyone just gives what she wants with no reguard for anyone else. Horrible book.
