Title: Deep Blue (Waterfire Saga #1)
By: Jennifer Donelly
Publication Date: May 6th 2014 by Disney Press
"The first in a series of four epic tales set in the depths of the ocean, where six mermaids seek to protect and save their hidden world.
Deep in the ocean, in a world not so different from our own, live the merpeople. Their communities are spread throughout the oceans, seas, and freshwaters all over the globe.
When Serafina, a mermaid of the Mediterranean Sea, awakens on the morning of her betrothal, her biggest worry should be winning the love of handsome Prince Mahdi. And yet Sera finds herself haunted by strange dreams that foretell the return of an ancient evil. Her dark premonitions are confirmed when an assassin's arrow poisons Sera's mother. Now, Serafina must embark on a quest to find the assassin's master and prevent a war between the Mer nations. Led only by her shadowy dreams, Sera searches for five other mermaid heroines who are scattered across the six seas. Together, they will form an unbreakable bond of sisterhood and uncover a conspiracy that threatens their world's very existence."

So I don't know about you guys but around this time of year I want mermaid books and I want them now! There is something about mermaid books that just mesmerize me. I get lost in the stories and drift to a land where the magical and mythical veil is lifted and I can be excited that all my hopes and dreams of Ariel are real and if I listen closely I can hear her singing. Crazy I know but like I said I am in love with mermaids and any book that can let me drift into the land where mermaids are real sign me up!
I have seen this book on MANY blogs that received a arc of this book and they just rave about it. This made my excitement go to a entirely new level and it is coming out soon *happy dance* So tell me, do you like mermaid books? Tell me your summer guilty pleasure reads, and if you have read this book let me know you thoughts on it! As always if you are a new follower make sure to let me know and if you have a blog leave your link so I can check it out! =)
