October pleasure reading, part 2

At BMES 2011, I was able to read some on the plane/in the airport and during conference down time.  I borrowed a book from my friend on an impulse and I enjoyed it.  The book was called Mermaid by Carolyn Turgeon and it was not really the type of book I would usually read, but that's okay.  It was short and quick but a bit sad because it was basically about two women that fall in love with the same man and each make big sacrifices to try to be with him.  It did parallel The Little Mermaid a bit, but this was definitely a lot darker, like the actual fairytale by Andersen.  It really makes me want to go on a Disney-watching binge...
