'I fell and fell and fell until I was so deep in love that love resembled a well, steep sides with no way out'

finished The Seas by Samantha Hunt after almost 3 years HUNTing (hahahah) for it in libraries and holding it in my palms at kino couple of times before caving in and getting ANOTHER book instead hahahah but now that i finally found it in NLB i must say that its my second favourite book now i cannot begin to even illustrate how tender and intricate the analogies and ache are crafted out. and all the sea related imagery and themes.. it makes me wanna stay in it forever. and Hunt actually achieves her goal of making it hella creepy because firstly the main character (i am starting to realise she might not have a name or maybe i did not notice but) the main character is so so so in love with a 33 year old man (she is 19) it is almost insane you actually ache for her i would list all my favourite sentences and phrases but then that would be the entire book i am going to buy this book and read it when i fall in love or when the person i love does not love me back
