It had a lot of elements that I've seen in other YA fantasy books, but with a female protagonist that actually read as a real person. ( ) The author presents us with a pinch of German fairy tale style and a dash of young lady's manners and proper behavior of the 19th century. Clara is the opposite of Maren. One is introvert and lacks the courage the other is spontaneous and adventurer. Clara accepts the hard task to return her beloved sister to the ocean, now that she's turning into a mermaid. First she has a hard time to accept that she must let her sister go. There are characters in the book that might change this fate if they wanted to, but that's not the point. This is Clara's journey and coming of age task. No one can do this but her, because this is her journey to discover who she is, to accept it, to find love and to become who she's meant to be, contrary to her sister Maren who already knows exactly who she is and where she belongs. The end: The book had a great start. It was light and I enjoyed reading it. I'm very critical with endings. It started to crumble when the "King" falls ill. I felt the ending needed more work. Somehow the way the author managed the end of the evil characters was a bit silly, even forced in some parts. It was a bit disappointing that it was too predictable, but I wouldn't say it was a waste of time. The mission was accomplished and her wishes come true. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
