  3. Ahhhh. Promiss you'll make the contest international? :( I'd love so much to win an ARC of Forbidden Sea. Really. I've been waiting for months, because the publisher could not ship to outside the US and so. This cover is so gorgeous!!!

  4. Whoa..That's scary! But have to admit, the cover makes the book such a must grab!

  5. Raila: I wish I could. Shipping is brutal! Did you enter my birthday contest? It's international ;) and the BookDepository does appear to carry the Forbidden Sea.

    Mel: :) I'm heading over now :)

  9. Awesome teaser! And I love your blog post title. Heh, Killer Mermaid would be a great band name...if I had a band and could play an instrument.

  12. Doesn't it just suck that BD doesn't ship to Brazil? Yeah, it does! Hate it. :( But I understand you.

    Thanks for visiting mine, too!

    ReplyDelete

  35. Ooh, that's bone-chilling. Yet I'm very curious!

    ReplyDelete

  36. Excellent teaser! Plus, I like the cover, it's kind of ominous. :)

    ReplyDelete

  37. I last read Keeper by Alpeit. It's a middle grade book with 400 pages to boot! Too much and a bit draggy with not enough mermaid to make things interesting.

    This one sounds much much better! :o)

    ReplyDelete

  38. I really, REALLY want to read this what a pretty cover

    ReplyDelete

  39. 1stdaughter: I've never heard of that one. I need to look in to it. Or maybe I shouldn't, huh? ;)

    ReplyDelete

  40. Ooh, very creepy teaser. I'm a fan of mermaids, though, so I'll have to add this one to my wishlist. Are you enjoying it?

    ReplyDelete

  41. Lizzy: My review posts tomorrow. It was really good :)

    ReplyDelete

  42. I reviewed it not too long ago here: Keeper by Kathi Appelt
    I think you even commented on it...LOL! :o)

    ReplyDelete

  43. This sounds sooo my kind of read... so why haven't I heard about this book until I came to your blog???? Thanks for the heads up Ju!!
