The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay
Beautiful, Passionate, Raw, Incredible, Funny in a twisted way, Heart-breaking
and unforgettable !
I don't want to give anything away but I do because this story was YES! that amazing that you
just want to blab to everyone and their mother about it.
Nastya Kashnikov had the perfect life and a promising future ahead of her until that one
afternoon. Now, she only wants to find the boy who destroyed her future and find out why
he did it. Without any will to keep enjoying life as she did before she just wants to get through
high school unnoticed.
Josh Bennett has nothing left to live for, literally nothing. Because no one knows how to deal
with a seventeen year old boy with no family they all leave him alone. It's like he has an
invisible shield around him and Nastya wants just that, to be left alone.
Nastya becomes intrigued by Josh's don't-mess-with-me-I-want-none-of-your-pity-attitude
and can't help but keep showing up at his garage while he works on furniture (his hobby). At first
Josh doesn't understand why she always shows up but then becomes use to it. In a strange way
they develop the closest relationship you can think of without really knowing each other if that
makes any sense. Josh does open up to Nastya but the hints she gives him about her past scare
him to want to know the rest of her story.
This book is so beautiful and funny at the same time, I'm just going to leave it at that because
finding out everything as you read it makes it that much more amazing. As I was reading this book
The supporting characters were amazingly portrayed especially Drew. That boy needs a book of
his own I'm telling you. Some parts in the book made me feel like I was watching a classic
John Hughes movie like The Breakfast Club.
Intense sadness and happiness all wrapped in to one with glimmering
hope is what this book is.
