Troubled Waters by Zee Reneé

adventurous dark emotional funny inspiring sad slow-paced

5.0

If I could give this book 6 stars I would. I feel like I’ve said “oh this in my top favs of the year” like 15 times but I’m stamping & finalizing that this is my number one favorite of 2024. I HIGHLY doubt there will be a book that takes its place. This book had me snotty nose crying. I mean I cried soo hard my eyes hurt & I had to step away & take a lil nap (it’s been a looooong time since I read a book that pulled that much emotion out of me.) I suggest reading All in first but you don’t quite have too because even though Kylo was a prominent character in all in troubled waters is his story. It’s about his experiences. It’s about his journey to love both romantically & self love. Kylo’s story is relatable in the way that it’s plenty of people who have been through what Kylo went through some had the same outcome as Kylo & some wasn’t as fortunate as Kylo. But also Innocent was also on her own journey of self love & healing through her trauma & grief. This book was heavy af but also good af too.
