Crazy as a plot gimmick. What’s behind the social norm these days of insanity and the fear that one will be injected with drugs, have pieces of brain removed, and locked in a padded room for even discussing or thinking about the crazy? It’s a overused plot point, but worse, it spread untrust and control to anyone who doesn’t conform to another’s beliefs. One reads or hears enough stories with this plot element, and can’t help but believe it can happen to them, or that that it’s ok to do it unto others. I don’t believe in censorship, but continuing to expound the story line of negativity and the fear of not conforming to “standard” beliefs is simply wrong. Notice that rarely does any author have enough guts to actually have a character fight the label of being crazy. They use the slightest hint of non conformity of thought, as an unbreakable law like gravity, to force the plot into a well known predictable and safe direction. This lazy author, and other of the like should, find another conflict to make the story flow, or if they really have the chops, tackle the widespread social and political stigma of the simply thinking crazy..

The Series. I read the entire series in about a week and honestly do like the books. I hadn't run into a young adult mermaid story/series before and the underwater city was very interesting. In all honesty, I struggled with two thing though: There seemed to be a great deal of coincidence in some of the dangerous encounters throughout the series (e.g. that particular cabin? getting help at this or that exact moment?). I kept wondering if there was something I was missing about how some of these encounters were possible. The other thing was the consistent use of the word "twitch". It seemed to be abused given the context of the sentences. It really distracted me whenever it was used. Again. I did like these books overall.

Captivating. Very intriguing and draws you in.
