5.0

A beautifully rich and haunting setting. It's a short book but it packed one hell of a punch that I simultaneously believe it was perfect and also wish it was longer. The Deep takes on an incredibly traumatic real life situation and turns it into something with a sense of community. Such an impactful message behind it, I implore everyone to give this book a try. The narration is also done by Daveed Diggs and was chef's kiss.
