The Deep by Rivers Solomon
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
**3.5-stars**
What the heck did I just read?
This novella is so unique. The feeling.
Gah! I can’t even describe it.
When I first finished this book, I was blown away but also didn’t really understand what I had read. Overtime, the initial feeling of overwhelming joy has petered out.
In fact, I remember very little about this. Considering the fact that I completed it just 4-days ago, seems a bit of an issue to me.
While I respect the beautiful nature of this story, the question remains, what was this? Whilst reading, I was overwhelmed with feelings that I was being told some wise and ancient lore, unfortunately I think the true meaning of it sailed well over my head.
I do appreciate the creation of this story and I would even read it again someday, it’s just a hard one to grasp. Absolutely moving though, even if you don’t fully understand why it is slowly ripping your heart out of your chest.
In short, I would need to read this again before I can provide more thoughts. Something I would most definitely be willing to do. Thank you so much to the publisher, Saga Press, for sending me a copy to read and review. I truly appreciate the opportunity!
