Shark Heart: A Love Story by Emily Habeck
5.0
challenging dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I was hesitant, because the idea seemed so absurd- but man, did this book deliver.  The idea of mutation was handled in a way that made it seem reasonable in this version of our world.  This was beautiful, raw, and heartbreaking in the best way.  
Didn’t expect a shift in our character focus, but was grateful for it in the end.  All in all, a perfect story told with beautiful prose.
