Thank you to the author for providing a review copy.
Dry is a heavy, heavy book. The ocean is pretty terrifying in its own right, but a dried up ocean? Deeply unsettling. At its heart, this is a book about family and what choices we would make when the unthinkable happens. This one hurt my heart quite a bit. Beautiful and haunting, I'll be thinking about Dry for a long time. 5 stars
