A review by terzza
Aristotle and Dante Dive Into the Waters of the World by Benjamin Alire Sáenz

5.0

Thank you to Louisa at Simon and Schuster for sending me an early digital copy. I kid you not, I started crying on the very first page and I didn't really stop until well over an hour after finishing it. I was super hesitant because the first book was a perfect circle and I didn't want the sequel to disappoint, like so many do, but if anything it just made the first feel even better.

Aristotle and Dante Dive into The Waters of the World expands on all the difficult topics of the first, and more. Benjamin Alire Sáenz stays true to these characters that mean so much to so many, the spirit is still there, but as the characters have grown up, so has the discussions, the narrative feel more mature and nuanced.

This hit me hard with all the emotions.
