I definitely want to return to this later to attempt a better review, but for now I'll say:
I cannot adequately put into words how powerful this book's message is for people everywhere or how exquisitely written it is either. I have so many feelings about this beautiful, heart-wrenching story. This is going to be a book that lives in my head rent free. I'm going to recommend it to everyone cause I feel like it is a truly underrated book and more people need to read it.

If you have issues regarding drowning or have aquaphobia or thalassaphobia, and choose to read this book, I recommend that you take any necessary steps to protect your emotional well-being ahead of time by preparing yourself as best as possible. It can be. . . a lot even if you don't have issues(I, myself, do not) so I wanted to warn people.
