Half the reason I read this so quickly was because it's very short. The other half was because I loved it.
I found myself falling in love the little snippets of the world instantly, though I don't know what half of it means. I love the MC, Selkie, who spends a lot of time thinking about what's normal and what's not, and has very appropriate reactions to things like a popular girl from school talking to her. I relate to Selkie.
The writing style, which is rather straightforward, might be annoying to some, but I like it. It's refreshing, after months of reading complicated sentences and over-the-top descriptions.
I love this. But I don't have money for the rest of the series. Ugh.
