"What I love most about this book is its insane romanticism - not insane because it's romantic, but romantic because it's insane. Hunt's narrator has a special idealism in the face of imminent tragedy, and has convinced herself that she is a mermaid. The doomed love affair with a (much older) Gulf War vet and the isolated, coastal ship-building town add to the desolate landscape of this story that is absolutely unforgettable."
"I would like to give The Seas 4.5 stars but because it's not an option and I feel really friendly towards (if a little spooky about) it I am rounding up. It is about magic and love."
