Waking the Merrow (The Merrow Trilogy #1) by Heather Rigney ★★★★☆

"They were the wide eyes of her aquatic cousins, unmistakable with the unnaturally large eye-sockets and light-colored irises. He was a merrow." 

Different and did not disappoint! Welcome to world of Irish folklore, of Merfolk with teeth, long memories, clans, and varied diets. All told from the slightly meta point of view of a functioning alcoholic. 

My TBR is a functioning Jenga Tower but this series has become a must read. 

All tail Merfolk May!
