Review: AMAZING SHORT STORY - This story will remind you of the Little Mermaid by Walt Disney. It is a sweet story about two girls last summer at an ocean club that is closing forever... A story about friendship and chance encounters.
Review: 3.5 rating- Solid message for teens. Snobbish mermaid. - Solid message for teens. Snobbish mermaid. Years and years ago I had the paperback. The idea of a mermaid story always intrigued me but never enough to get past the first page. I'd watched the movie a few times and really enjoyed that. Fast forward about twenty years and I see a 99-cent eBook sale for Aquamarine. I didn't even hesitate. I'm proud to say I finished it in one sitting on the same day I bought it. My thoughts on the book, however... Likes: ~As I said, mermaid story. ~I enjoyed a brief visit back to my childhood. Especially the illustrations. I vividly remember flipping through the book just for those. ~The summer beach vibes were fun. This is a perfect selection for the summer season. ~I'm all for starry descriptions and imagery and there was a ton of that! Examples: "The wind was so strong, it knocked on the rooftops and rattled the stars up above." "...the moon jellyfish glittered like stars." "They went in past the whitecaps that shone like stars." ~I believe Hoffman succeeded in bringing Aquamarine (the character) to life. Her descriptions were lovely and the fact that so much of her personality and qualities had watery comparisons was great. ~The second half of the book is where my enjoyment picked up. Aquamarine's bratty attitude eased up and she was a lot more likable. The doom and gloom tone relaxed too. ~Things didn't magically work. The move still happened, and the girls had to make do and learn to cope. That may have sounded cold, but I liked that it was realistic. In real life, we have to deal with changes, and I believe this book has a solid message of making the best of what you have, holding onto the good memories, and being willing to make new ones. Dislikes: ~I did not like Aquamarine to begin with. I had no desire to see her and Raymond meet. As far as I was concerned, she could stay in the pool and turn to dust. She was that bratty and snotty. Thankfully, there was some improvement. ~Speaking of wanting to meet Raymond, what was that all about? It was so abrupt and superficial. ~Hailey and Claire were such downers! It seemed like there was a reminder about their separation on every. single. page. This element would set better with teens and middle graders. I know because I was there once (not the same situation) and I remember being a bit overdramatic about things and running things into the ground and I was probably annoying about it, lol. ~There was too much of a lack of dialogue for me. Overall: ~3.5 stars. I'm so glad I finally gave this book a chance. I can't see myself continuing the series tho. ~Definitely recommend for MG and tween readers. There wasn't any magic in this. Perfect for an easy summer read and mermaid fans. The movie was really fun and I actually like that storyline more. I think it just made more sense and the characters have a bit more oomph.
