Haha thanks! Everyone tells me that, but its actually based on a legend of a mermaid! (One of these days I'll get around to watching Gilmore Girls so I know what all the hype is about :) )

A legend about a mermaid....sounds interesting! You will love Gilmore Girls if you like witty banter. :)

I think it was subliminal, bookowlie. Your subconscious made the pun.

Great review. This seems like a very interesting book. I love crime books but I always want to know the WHY behind each crime. The Wicked Wives seems like it explains that very well.

Thanks! I am the same way. I always want to know the motive. Sadly, it too often is money.

Great! I think it will be a lively discussion. So many unlikeable characters!
