Young-adult author Tera Lynn Childs has another hit on her hands: Forgive My Fins. The author of Goddess Boot Camp has crafted a magical story with teenaged half-human/half-mermaid princess Lily Sanderson living on land. (As if high school weren’t hard enough already!) She’s got a crush on a boy from the swim team (that seems like a good fit, doesn’t it?), and she’s annoyed with the bothersome biker boy next door. Things really get interesting when she accidentally kisses the wrong guy. 7 p.m. Blue Willow Bookshop, 14532 Memorial Drive. For information, call 281-497-8675 or visit www.bluewillowbookshop.com.
