100% bought this because SHARKS. (I love sharks so freaking much, you should just know this about me.) It was a quick middle grade read (yay) but honestly not that solid of a story (boo). It felt clunky and not super cohesive, with a lot of death and loss for a kid’s book and not enough development around the grief process or other elements around the loss of loved ones. It just fell flat for me, but I believe it was the author’s debut, and I’m clearly not the target audience... so maybe I’m just expecting too much. At least there were lots of sharks!!!
