I loved this - it was light, fluffy, fun, adorable, and overall just a really good time. It had enough danger to keep most anyone engaged, but really it was just a great time.
The romance was really adorable, I loved the sibling interactions, and there was enough plot that I didn't feel like it was pointless but I also never felt stressed, the perfect cozy vibe.
If you want something deep and meaningful, you aren't going to find it here - but there is a great coming of age and self-acceptance story wrapped in an adorable romance, including a merman, some pirates, magic, and royal/political intrigue. It's a great time and I recommend it to anyone needing a pallet cleanser or something easy in between heavier reads!
