The Depths by Nicole Lesperance

3.5

adventurous dark mysterious medium-paced

---

This was okay. It’s basically a YA horror about a teenager, Addie, who travels with her mother and new stepdad on their honeymoon to a special island. Addie is a free diver and recently had a near death experience where she drowned and was essentially dead for several minutes before they resuscitated her. This fact plays a part the entire book and honestly became a little bit repetitive at times as she constantly thinks about her death. The island they’re on is pretty remote and some strange things start happening. This book has paranormal elements as well as some fantastical elements relating to the island. Again, thought it was okay but not my favourite.
