The Tidal Zone by Sarah Moss
4.0
4.5/5 :)
This book is such an incredible exploration of what it means to be alive. There's the constant argument of how inconsequential, insignificant our lives are in the grand scale of things and yet how ridiculously self important we feel. Sarah Moss doesn't shy away from being very current in her setting and story. Certain references I felt were very British and went over my head, but besides a few rare sections, it didn't in any way inhibit my reading pleasure of this book. And the writing is just stunning. This book is an experience, I felt myself living and breathing with the characters and it feels like they are carrying on with their own lives but I just am not reading about them anymore. Read it, read it. Read it.
