Forgive My Fins-Tera Lynn Childs

Unrequited love is hard enough when you’re a normal teenage girl, but for 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 tsunami-sized case of mistaken identity, she finds out, quick as a tailfin flick, that happily ever after never sails quite as smoothly as you planned.

Review:
As soon as i seen the cover for this book I knew I had to have it! It is absolutely gorgeous! Because sadly I do judge a book by its cover.  I was hooked by the first sentence, each character was unique and had their own personality.  The main character Lily was so fierce, kind, relatable, she has so much love and dedication to her friends, family, kingdom, and people.  She is also true to her heart.  This story is a little different than your typical mermaid books.  She's a mermaid when the book begins, a mermaid princess that is!  There were so many extras in this book, it was like waking up on christmas morning!  Tera Lynn Childs creates a magical world. Her writing style is easy to read.  You don't get punched in the face with the history of the book in the beginning, it's gradually given to you throughout the story.  There is not one negative thing I can say about this book.  Five stars for Forgive My Fins!!!
