What mermaid books are you currently reading?

[Kittymermaid]

I'm currently reading a book called The Siren by Kierra Cass and I'm planning on reading more mermaid books. Feel free to add some suggestions on any good mermaid books to read.

I'm in love with the Waterfire Saga even though I've only read the first two books. I need to get my hands on the rest of the series at some point.

[MermaidSasha]

I agree with the Waterfire Saga. I really like the first too and need to buy all the books lol xD

[Kittymermaid]

I've heard of the Waterfire Saga. Maybe I'll read that one next.

[MermaidSasha]

Definitely should. It is a great series from what I've read so far( only the first two) lol I really want to get all four and read it from start to finish. The chapters aren't super crazy long either. Usually only a few pages per chapter

[Princess Aegean]

Waterfire saga all the way! It's amazing. Have you guys heard the song that goes with it? It's called "Open Your Eyes" by Beau Miller and it is also amazing.

[MermaidSasha]

I haven't heard it yet, but I'll make sure to go and check it out

[Kittymermaid]

Is the song on YouTube?

[MermaidSasha]

Yes

The kiss that changed me by Kristy Nicolle. It's book three in the Tidal Kiss Trilogy.

I'm not reading anything at the moment, but I am working on one of my own! I have mostly settings and characters ready, but a proper story isn't quite set yet. This is a neat thread though! It might help me to find good books and get inspiration from fellow mers/merfolk lovers. :)

[Hydra1337]

Good for you. That's actually one of the reasons I'm here too. All these books really help inspire me.

Going back to the first post I LOVED THE SIREN OMG


Uh anyway beyond that I just found a couple free kindle books on Amazon about mermaids I plan to read soon ❤

I'm on mobile!

[MermaidSasha]

I am also working on a mermaid story of my own. xD

So my daughter picked out "Poor Unfortunate Souls" by Serena Valentino for me at her schools book fair. It gives more insight to Ursula and ties in The Little Mermaid with a bunch of other fairytales and even some Lovecraftian hints! I love it so much. <3

I loved the Ingo Series by Helen Dunmore, if you like selkies and the older, more folklore-esque mer aesthetic, and I loved the Lost Voices trilogy by Sarah Porter. Lost Voices was a little dark and dealt with heavier themes, but it was really well written, and had some of the most interesting depictions of sirens/mermaids I've ever seen in fiction. One of my favorite books of all time.

I love the Ingo books! All the songs in it are real which really added to it. I love the Waterfire Saga as well. Apart from them I've not read any good mer fiction so I'll have a look at some of the other series as well.

[Slim]

I would love to be one of the first people to read that story when your done.


I am also working on a mermaid story of my own. xD

[MermaidSasha]

Alright xD but its not going to be done anytime soon lol.

Currently I'm reading Raina book "How to be a Mermaid." It's actually the first book I read in over 15 years.

[Kittymermaid]

Yesterday I bought Deep Blue but I didn't start reading it yet because I'm still reading the Siren. Once I'm finished reading I'm going to read Deep Blue.

One series that no one has brought up yet is The Tail of Emily Windsnap. It's about a seventh-grade girl who learns she is half mermaid.

[MermaidSasha]

First time I've heard of it. I'll have to check it out

Oh my gosh Emily Windsnap!! Those books were my childhood even before I was a mermaid :) I think I read the first four but I know that more have come out since then. Man, I might have to go back and read them...

A friend of mine has written two ya/fantasy books. The first one is at https://www.wattpad.com/story/423918...mations-book-1 (https://www.wattpad.com/story/42391865-tails-transformations-book-1), second is at https://www.wattpad.com/story/467993...mations-book-2 (https://www.wattpad.com/story/46799315-fins-transformations-book-2)

I have heard about all the books mentioned and have read some of them. I'm always looking for mermaid books, so I know of several.

"Aquamarine" by Alice Hoffman is a favorite of mine, it's short and sweet, and the movie is loosely based off of it.

"Forgive My Fins" by Tera Lynn Childs is teenage romance fluff, but I thought it was pretty good. There are two other books because it's a series, but the one I mentioned is the best one.

"The Music of Dolphins" by Karen Hesse has always been a favorite, although it's not actually about a mermaid, it's about a young girl who was raised by dolphins and is taken onto land by humans, and she learns about the human world and what it means to be human. It's a beautiful story, though it's a children's book.

"Mermaid Park" by Beth Mayall is about a teenage girl who finds a place where women perform as mermaids, very much like Weeki Wachi.

I have read "The Siren." I personally liked it up until the ending.

I know of others, but I don't want to take up too much room listing them all. :) If you like I can tell you others, just PM me or let me know. :)

I went to Barnes & Noble last week and bought Rogue Wave. The second book of the Waterfire Saga.
