I really wanted to love this book. But how can a mere 200 and something pages feel so exhausting, stretched out and more often than not: boring?
I feel like somehow nothing happened and I understand that this book was mainly about love, grief and letting go more than a mystery-horror-thriller about the deep sea, but I feel like this book delivered neither. Left me very untouched unfortunately.
