Helena Fox spins an extremely exquisite tale that tackles mental health, grief, and love (among many other themes) and does so with such grace and beauty. I would absolutely pick up Helena's next release. My favourite part of the story is the exploration of mental health and how it affects us.

Biz really has had a hard go of life after losing her father and is trying to find where she fits now a few year later. The tale is well done and comes together so nicely. I also really enjoyed that it was set in Australia, as I love it there and it doesn't show up very often in young adult.

Biz is floating along trying to be as normal as possible and avoiding making waves, but she's definitely not like everyone else, and after the beach, she really has to examine what she wants in life. Grace, Biz's bestie, is pretty interesting and enjoyably written. And Biz's family (Mum, Dart, and Billie) are pretty amazing.
