This week's pick is from St. Clair by Rose Christos. This series is very sweet, and I really need to read the last book already.


"You know what I like about The Little Mermaid?" A smile spread slowly across my lips. I forgot to shake my head.

"She's mute. She traded her tongue for legs. She can't talk to anyone, even when her sisters come and visit her at the surface of the sea. She can't talk to the guy she loves. But she doesn't need to talk for people to see how good she is. She dances for the prince, even though it causes her pain. She doesn't mind when he marries someone else. She can't bring herself to kill him, even though it's the only way she can go home to her family. She's got the best heart. It doesn't matter that she can't speak. Everybody knows it."

He touched his fingertips to my cheek. To the birthmark on the side of my face.

"Everybody knows it."

  4. That is a sweet quote, for sure. And I'm so pleased to see the original fairy tale referenced, and not Disney's version! I'll have to look for that series. :)
