I did not do many notes on this book and I regret that now, but I would love to say “It’s Nemo!” this was a great book and as much as certain topics are always hard to read about, I love that this book does give you some great character to love. This books is probably not for everyone, that’s ok but I love watch character work though there trauma and find a found family. Sawyer is a tragic tale, Enzo is also a tragic tale. Together those tragic stories make a beautiful one of forgiveness, self love, and living and surviving your demons.

Ok, so I liked the characters and the plot of the story and I found it to be an easy read.

That being said, I’m not a huge fan of the style of writing. I don’t love books in the first person to begin with and also don’t love POV switches. But to be completely honest, I just felt the author used a lot of crutch phrases and words that are easy to catch on to.

I think it’s a good read if you like dark romance, thriller, and mystery. I’m by no means saying this is a bad book, just not the type of writing I love. I will say, I’ve been dreaming about sharks a lot since reading…

I had low hopes after reading the reviews, but I honestly had an absolute blast reading this book. The title? Questionable. Everything else? A pretty good time.
