Now you read a book where people are traveling across the ocean, how about a book set UNDER the water?

Recommendations:

A Crack in the Sea by H.M. Bouwman
A Song Below Water by Bethany C. Morrow
Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant
Deep Blue by Jennifer Donnelly

Leslie | 25 comments I read 20000 Leagues Under the Sea for this prompt. It seems like such an obvious choice, but I had never read it before.

Suzanne Halekas | 36 comments I read The Island of the Sea Women for this. It’s not entirely under water, but I felt like enough of the story/plot was about an exceptional ability to stay in water or took place under water.

Wonderful book, but also just heart-shattering how hard life can be.
