On the other hand, I don't have any confusion about what happened between books, (hint: nothing) because of the no-gaps-between-story-lines thing.Jade was still an awesome and true to life kind of character, but I really feel like she grew in this one, maybe matured? I really liked reading through her point of view, because her sense of humor is absolutely to die for and her inner monologue is absolutely awesome. It's like reading a commentary to a real life event, which was cool.I think that my only real problem with Real Mermaids Don't Hold Their Breath is that it's just a tad bit too action-packed. Don't get me wrong, I love action! But honestly, so many different things were happening in the plot at one time, and so many things that really shouldn't have happened kept happening...and AHH! I'd just better leave it at that. BUT the adding and adding to the plot was absolutely ridiculous! o_OAll in all, Real Mermaids Don't Hold Their Breath is a light and fluffy read that I would definitely recommend for younger teens, but I'm not so sure that every one will like it, considering my reaction to the plot. *sigh* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They are very reminiscent of Beverly Cleary in that the characters are very easily relatable, even with being 1/2 mermaid *by M***0 on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2016* These books are very quick reading for the average adult, because they are geared more for junior high/early high school aged readers. They are very reminiscent of Beverly Cleary in that the characters are very easily relatable, even with being 1/2 mermaid. The adolescent issues are very real. I found the entire series to be sweet and poignant while having some surprises and twists and turns along the way. I'd highly recommend them to anyone who loves mermaids and wants a bit of fun summer reading. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A totally magical mer tale... *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2014* I love any story's about Mers( I may have a slight obsession...) Helene does such a great job capturing who all the characters are and I totally loved this tale I recommend it to any girl...Sorry boys you might want to sit it out on this one...And I only gave it a four because I'm holding out on a super amazing life changing story to give a five star.
