Up Through The Water (2000) - Plot & Excerpts

This wasn't my favorite book in the whole world. It was kind of what I would expect a young author in her 20s to write back in the 80s. Heck, it's the kind of stuff I attempted to write in college after reading authors like that. A lot of the references really dated the book and, while this is minor, I wasn't a fan of the graphics that opened each "section" of the book. A little too 80s for me. The book focuses on several characters who live and work on an island tourist town and the relationships they have with each other and themselves. There is underage sex, dead ponies, marijuana, jealousy, and water, just to name a few things off the top of my head. Some of it was predictable - maybe a handful of surprises throughout the whole book - but it was a short book and, therefore, a very quick read. So that was nice.
