THE END OF THE OCEAN had a promising premise - dual timelines, two POVs and a mystery behind that linked all these elements.
While the synopsis grabbed my attention, the story started very slow and kept this pace mainly throughout the book. I got frustrated waiting for something more impactful to happen. The writing was good and descriptive plus the topics approached were important (family, survival, climate change). That being said, I felt disconnected with the characters and the storyline felt mostly flat. I ended up skipping few pages in order to find a reason to make me invested in the story. At last, the execution left a lot to be desired.
Unfortunately, this book didn't work for me.
