Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. This book was something I normally wouldn't read, but the cover and title caught me. This is such a beautiful story that is told so well. I love how easily I am about to envision this society in my mind. I really love the meaning behind the novel pointing out how so many different people and places are so important to us. This would make a great book club book!

What an absolutely beautiful book. The writing is simplistic, but so descriptive that you can easily picture this dystopian society overtaken by water. I connected with the main protagonist, Bo, trying to hold on to her familiar, yet completely changed, world. This will make an outstanding book club pick and I have a feeling it will be a modern classic.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to read!

Wow...wow a beautiful novel. Sometimes simplicity is key and yet as simplistic this review is I want you to know the this novel itself is quite complex with well loved characters and vivid descriptions. The writing is thoughtful and lyrical in a sense that carries you through the pages as if you are gliding through the narrative alongside our main character Bo, where we examine a world that she lives in so believable and well constructed it makes you look out the window and almost picture it like a painting. I absolutely loved this novel and will talk about it with all my reading friends.
