A review by brookebookshelf
Waterlog by Roger Deakin

4.0

Charming, quirky, picturesque, and poetic. Local stories and histories sitting alongside tales from his obsession with swimming in every kind of “swimmable” location. Some made me want to dive in with him and others seemed terrifying or just icky. It was A LOT of swimming to read about, but his writing kept me (mostly) engaged. Like another reviewer here, I would have enjoyed seeing photos of some of the locations.
