This was a good read. Likeable characters and an interesting plot. I'm always buzzing for budding relationships and Jade and Luke had me smiling whenever they were together. The relationship felt authentic with just the right amount of awkwardness. I especially liked the fact that it wasn't corny and over the top, which I often see in young adult fiction.There was a huge twist I didn't see coming involving Luke, which I won't give away, and although it did surprise me, I didn't take well to it.4.5 starsReal Mermaids Don't Wear Toe Rings is a great coming of age story, mixed with a little mystery, for middle grade readers. It's fun, it's quirky and Jade's voice is one of realism as she's coming to terms with things that are going on around her and humorous. Jade had me laughing out loud more than once.

View more of my review and others at my blog: www.mynotsovacantshelf.blogspot.comThis book is exactly what you would expect. Its a cute fun read that left me smiling and wondering about the rest of the series.I definitely didnt see a lot of it coming.

But, youre introduced to the under water world; however, not too much. It
I knew I would love Real Mermaids Dont Wear Toe Rings. I had read the great reviews. I enjoy the authors quirky, somewhat out-there sense of humour. And I always love a book that draws me into an alternate world and allows me to stay there, happy for the duration, in my suspended disbelief.And so I bought the book. And so I kept the book. And so I waited for one of those delicious afternoons where I could climb into a tub with my box of chocolates and a cup of tea. And Im so glad I did.Jade
I bought Real Mermaids Dont Wear Toe Rings for my eleven year old step-daughter. She loves to read, and she absolutely loved this book. She was begging for the rest of the books before she was even finished. I read the book after she finished, because Ive seen it reviewed around the blogosphere, and I wanted to see what it was all about. When we first meet the main character, Jade, she is having a really rough day. She is at the mall with her best friend and father, when horror of all horrors,

This is the first book in the series and the last one I'll read.Jade has all the same problems that other adolescents do with a couple of big differences--her mother disappeared without a trace a couple of years ago and Jade turns into a mermaid when her feet touches water. Ooops, her father forgot to tell her that her mom was a mermaid and drowned only she isn't actually actually dead but has been kidnapped by evil mer-people, or 'pesco-sapiens' if you are politically correct, who want to be
