This is one of the best books I have ever read!
This is a mesmerising read. If you love to see the world from different points of view, this is a phenomenal read.
I was sceptical that a story written from the POV of dolphins would be anything remarkable, but this book has beautiful writing, powerful tribal conflicts, rich interior lives of characters you really care about, and manages to explore issues of global warming, plastic pollution and hunting.
I cannot recommended this more highly!
