“"I read once that water is a symbol for emotions. And for a while now, I've thought maybe my mother drowned in both"
And so begins this amazing debut novel by Jessi Kirby. The story follows Anna Ryan as she moves to a new town with her newly promoted father after the death of her mother. We read as Anna comes to terms with her mother's death and grows as a person.
I thought this book was beautifully written and a refreshing addition to a fieled of books that are filled with supernatural elements. The book gave off a Sarah Dessen vibe and was written just as well. I couldn't put this book down. This book is story telling at its finest. For a debut novel, I only expect better things to come from this author.”
