Even when they were describing the position of the plane when it was underwater I was still a little confused (still don't know the mechanics of the rescue mission). I heard this was going to be turned into a movie and I'm not surprised in the slightest. This book felt like it was written in hopes of being a movie rather than an actual book. Honestly, I wanted to dnf this book in the beginning and I would've rated it lower, but it did have one redeeming quality: it made me cry like a newborn baby. I balled my eyes out so many times during this book like it's not even funny. Like my anxiety was UP once the story got going.

Would I read it again, I don’t know. That’s why I scored it a 4/5. The multiple POV’s didn’t help as it took me a few chapter to get into the grove of it but I am so glad I read it.
Warning: there are several f words but they were not overtly done.

Flight 1421 6 mins after take off experiences an engine fire. The plane can't turn around, so no going back for a safer option of landing.
That's right, this plane has a ditching in the aviation industry an emergency landing on the water is called a ditching.
Again I was left thinking what I would do if this was my own flight. 1. I hope this never happens - to anyone. 2. I'm already scared of Drowning.

This was everything to me. I loved the plot, I loved the characters, I cried a lot, I cared so much and the technical jargon and all the physics made my little engineer heart happy. I love planes, I love deep sea horror, I love survival stories and I love real science and engineering - and this book delivered on all of those things.
I could gush about this novel for 300 more sentences but I'll stop now. My favorite book of the year, no doubt, and if you don't like this bool for whatever reason, just don't tell me because I refuse to hear it.
