Davidson, MaryJanice: Sleeping with the Fishes
ISBN: 0515142220

From the Publisher:

Fred is not your ordinary mermaid. She's not blonde. She's not buxom. And she's definitely not perky. In fact, Fred can be downright cranky. And it doesn't help matters that her hair is blue. While volunteering at the New England Aquarium, Fred learns that there are weird levels of toxins in the local seawater. A gorgeous marine biologist wants her help investigating. So does her merperson ruler, the High Prince of the Black Sea. You'd think it would be easy for a mermaid to get to the bottom of things. Think again.

As far as MJD goes, this is probably one of my favorite books by her to date. It's witty, fast paced, and not quite as annoying as Betsy. I found the characters to be generally amusing and interesting (Jonas being my favorite character).

The ending seemed to indicate a second book (at least), so I'll definitely pick that one up when it comes out.

I'd recommend this book to most women who want a romance with a little bit of humour and a little bit of "different". It was a pretty good read!
