A beautifully crafted graphic novel that intertwines themes of identity, friendship, and the enchantment of the sea.

The artwork is stunning, capturing the essence of coastal life and the wonder of the ocean. Ostertag's illustrations breathe life into the characters and settings, making each page a visual delight that enhances the emotional depth of the story.

While the story concludes in a satisfying manner, I have a lingering desire for more. The potential for Morgan and Keltie to meet again after seven years is tantalizing, hinting at untold adventures and further exploration of their relationship.

Molly Knox Ostertag has crafted a gem of a graphic novel that deserves its place on any bookshelf.
