4.0
A metaphorical look at true and unconditional love.
I loved this author’s writing despite the quirky plot of a husband mutating into a great white shark.
Most of this book kept me hooked, but there were parts where the story dragged or I was tired from the overwhelming amount of metaphor being used.
I also thought it would have benefitted from a little rearranging of the chronology of the story.
Overall, I’d love to read something new from this author. 3.75/5 stars for me.
