Rating: 4 out of 5

Whoa! What just happened?? Lol What a story! I read "Urchin" pretty quickly, it was really hard to put down! S.K. Munt is a true storyteller and evidence of that can be found within the pages of this amazing book!It seems that Anna has experienced the ups and downs of several lifetimes in only a few short years of her own life! So much happens to this woman, well, girl really. My heart goes out to her so many times throughout this novel, ugh! So naturally, I was pleased with how things turned out near the end.  And also very impressed at how S.K. weaved together the story of how mermaids came to be!The only issue I had was with the errors. Not only punctuation, some grammar, etc, but also a good portion of the French used is incorrect. So whoever helped with the translation didn't know the language that well. Which is too bad, because I would have rated this a 5, if it weren't for the errors! (If you need a new French expert, S.K., call me!!)That said, I really enjoyed this read, and would recommend it to older teenagers and adults! Anna is such an inspirational young woman and despite growing up with horrible men in her "family"(term used loosely), and having to endure other trials/idiots, she became so much more than anyone (even herself) ever dreamed she would!
