Falling Too DeepFalling Too Deep by Shay Lee Giertz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

After the death of her father, Brooke McFadden is devastated, grieving and despaired. She isolates herself from well-meaning friends and family who do not seem to understand the true depth of her grief. While out on a yacht, Brooke accidentally falls off the boat and into the deep ice-cold waters of Lake Michigan. When she awakes in her bed, and it’s the beginning of summer again. Navigating bad dreams and reliving the summer, Brooke must piece together memories and dreams to find out how she can escape this time loop.
A teenage rendition of the Groundhog day (although this is more than one day relived), this book explores what a teenager, stuck in grief would do if she had a second (or more) chance to re-do some of her decisions. I liked the story, and I loved the writing style, it was immersive and well thought out. A solid YA book to recommend to others.
