"Emerge" by Tobie Easton

Wow, okay so I speed-read this book in about two days and rn it's two am and I just finished it and I'm so tired, but I just have to talk about this book. 

Lia Nautilus may be a Mermaid but she’s never lived in the ocean. War has ravaged the seven seas ever since the infamous Little Mermaid unleashed a curse that stripped Mer of their immortality. Lia has grown up in a secret community of land-dwelling Mer hidden among Malibu’s seaside mansions. Her biggest problems are surviving P.E. and keeping her feelings for Clay Ericson in check. Sure, he’s gorgeous in that cocky, leather jacket sort of way and makes her feel like there’s a school of fish swimming in her stomach, but getting involved with a human could put Lia's entire community at risk.

So it’s for the best that he’s dating that new girl, right? That is, until Lia finds out she isn't the only one at school keeping a potentially deadly secret. And this new girl? Her eyes are dead set on Clay, who doesn't realize the danger he's in. If Lia hopes to save him, she’ll have to get closer to Clay. Lia’s parents would totally flip if they found out she was falling for a human boy, but the more time she spends with him, the harder it is for her to deny her feelings. After making a horrible mistake, Lia will risk everything to stop Clay from falling in love with the wrong girl.  (source: goodreads)

First of all, I gotta admit that I'm actually not into this whole mermaid thing, BUT I still really enjoyed this book. The story was refreshing and the characters were lovable. Tho I sometimes didn't like the dialogue between the two main characters, Lia and Clay, there were some really great passages.
In the middle of the book it got a bit boring bc the same things happened over and over again and Lia made the same mistake over and over again and I just got so annoyed by her. I really enjoyed the ending although the dialogue got a bit corny. The beginning of the book is actually my favourite part. You want to get to know the characters and Lia was really likeable.

All in all it was a good book and it's an easy read. You should check it out here: http://www.amazon.com/Emerge-Tobie-Easton/dp/1942664915
