Hey guys!!! It is now July 18,2012 (where I live, anyways). Sorry it has been forever since I uploaded on here!! So, without further ado, here's a new blog. Enjoy.

Alright, here's the break down. Wattpad has recently become swelled with mermaid  stories! I, myself, find them interesting and a fun, lighthearted read.

*(*)*(*)*(*)*

There is one mermaid story. You've all heard of Ariel, the little mermaid, right? Well, this is a re-telling of Hans Christen Anderson and Walt Disney's famous "The Little Mermaid". It's called "Crash Into Me" by  KarateChop. Here's the summary:

Talise, a mermaid, has fallen in love with Adam from afar. She would always venture to the top of the sea in hopes to see him. When she saves his life however, she dreams of walking on the beach next to him hand in hand. Talise seeks the dark magic of Caulder who has battled for her interest for years. Instead of just turning her into a human he strikes her a deal. She will have two weeks, being human, to make Adam fall in love with her. But if she fails, the spell will be broken and she will belong to Caulder instead.


It's a re-telling of Ariel's classic tail, re-told more modernly by KarateChop. I'm pretty impressed by KarateChop; she has a lot of books on her plate to write. I wish she'd update "Crash Into Me" because it hasn't been updated since last September and it left off on a MAJOR cliffhanger.

Another story is called "Mermaid Bay" by Kenziekay. It's a different angle on mermaids; you have your mermaid stories in which mermaids live full time in the ocean, and then humans who touch  and grow a tail. This is the latter.

Vanessa was pretty much a regular girl, she lived in a small town in hawaii untill her dad got a promotion and he told her that they are moving to L.A she was furious so she ran into the forest near her house and took an unexpected swim in a mysterious bay. Ever since then evrey time she totched water her legs turned into one long aqua fin. She meets a boy named Gale,who she quickly fell for,but when Taylor comes along assigned to kill her, will Vanessa rethink her feelings for Gale and want to be with Taylor and their forbbiden Love? or will she go with the boy she has to lie to?


Summary above^. It's a twist of a mermaid-human love story, mixed with a crazed super-natural hunter dude. It's almost coming to a love triangle, and has engaged me since the beginning.

One last story to mention; "A Mermaid's Tale" by WritingMyPassion. It's actually about a mermaid who gets captured by vampires, combining two supernatural beings providing for a great read. And the summary:


Aqua, a mermaid living in a human world. But when she is kidnapped by the vampire royals for revenge against her own royal family what secrets will come out. She learns her mermaids aren't always what she has been told. And that the hot vampire sons of the royal family aren't like she thought. What laws will be broken? What will the consequences be? Can love be illegal if it's true?

It's a completed story, but still is a good way to spend time. Will Aqua's love get in the way of her path to freedom? Ooh... good read.

So there you have it! Three good mermaid stories, all different, all very good. Thank you WritingMyPassion, Kenziekay, and KarateChop for supplying great mermaid reads for the public to enjoy *u*


Hugs and butterfly kisses.
