Underwater
by Marisa Reichardt
3.5 stars. I really enjoyed this
This is the first book I've read about the aftershock of a school shooting and the author did a very effective job of showing the affects through Morgan. Morgan has been scared to go outside for months, cut herself off from her all of her friends, and spends her days schooling online and making grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch. I loved her therapist and believe the scenes with Brenda were some of the strongest in the book. I also loved how Morgan's condition caused her to understand her PTSD war vet dad in a way she hadn't before. Morgan's little brother was a bright light in this book, and I adored new friend Evan's honesty and understanding. I would have liked to see more interactions with Mom, and I wasn't as emotionally attached as I thought I would be. Nonetheless, looking forward go this author's next book!
