Instead of reading a book, then blogging about it - I've been bad. I read a book, then read another - skipping a step it seems.
No problem - I will go back. Hope you don't mind!
So you were with me when I finished Rosie right? Then I picked up a mermaid book - mermaid only in that it had mermaid in the title, uhhhh let's see, title...
Got it: The Mermaids Singing by Lisa Carey
Another older book I picked up at a used book sale - maybe the Woods Hole Library? Copywrited in 1998, written in the seemingly popular style of multiple perspectives, and infused with Gaelic myths and culture.
Ultimately about a mother/daughter team disrupted by life and its happenings. And ONCE AGAIN with my favorite theme - who's gonna save me.
He saves her, she saves him, or does she save herself?
Or perhaps it's my favorite - do they save each other.
Only because sarcasm is hard - or is it impossible - to read. I will say that the act of saving or of being saved really is my favorite theme. (Hey, the most read book likes it too.)
And since then - this mermaids song - have been two others - Crooked Little Heart...
and The White Garden...while I wait for the third installment of Rosie in the mail - won in on eBay! But as for right now... think I'm gonna see who's gonna save whom in the white garden.
