The Pisces by Melissa Broder
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I'm still talking mad ish about this book. This is a type of book in which you are either going to love it or you are going to hate it. You have to have some sort of uncouth sense of humor to just let your bun down and enjoy the tongue-in-cheek scenarios that this book puts our protagonist in.

And it will also help if you are cynical about the dating scene and living in the Westside of LA to feel extra connection to this book. (NO lie, this book mentioned about the salon where my friend works and where I got my last haircut. Thought it was cool to take a mental walk with the protagonist on familiar streets.) But I digress...

What cracks me up is that in my goodreads friends list and in the book clubs I am part of, several of my friends are into supernatural/fantasy eroticas. I had mentioned it and have often teased them about it. Well, I guess I unknowingly joined their team as this is a merman erotica, not a cynical jab at modern dating involving astrological signs.

Before you start, ask your self if you are ready. I already gifted this book to a couple of friends who can get a laugh out of it.
