What if we drown war ein gutes Buch, hat mich aber nicht ganz vom Hocker gehauen. Der Schreibstil war sehr schön und auch das Setting hat der Geschichte das gewisse etwas gegeben.
Mit den Charakteren konnte ich mich aber nicht so ganz anfreunden. Ich fand es sehr schwierig manche Ängste von Laurie nach zu vollziehen und Sam war okay, konnte aber auch keine Bindung zu ihm aufbauen.
Sehr gut gelungen war jedoch die Beziehung zwischen Laurie und ihrem Halbbruder! Die Rückblicke und Erinnerungen waren immer schöne Szenen, besonders das Kapitel Hey Austin hat mich mitgenommen. 
Der Plot und Hauptkonflikt waren durchschnittlich, auch wenn die Themen in der Kombination selten (oder gar nicht) behandelt werden. Insgesamt habe ich gemischte Gefühle, daher recht durchschnittliche 3,5 Sterne!
