The best fiction simply tells the truth. But the truth is never simple. When novelist Kendra Brennan moves into her grandfather's old cabin on Hidden Lake, she has a problem and a plan. The problem?

The best fiction simply tells the truth. But the truth is never simple. When novelist Kendra Brennan moves into her grandfather's old cabin on Hidden Lake, she has a problem and a plan. The problem? An inflammatory letter from A Very Disappointed Reader. The plan? To confront Tyler, her childhood best friend's brother--and the man who inspired the antagonist in her first book. If she can prove that she told the truth about what happened during those long-ago summers, perhaps she can put the letter's claims to rest and meet the swiftly approaching deadline for her next book. But what she discovers as she delves into the murky past is not what she expected. While facing Tyler isn't easy, facing the consequences of her failed friendship with his sister, Cami, may be the hardest thing she's ever had to do. Plumb the depths of the human heart with this emotional exploration of how a friendship dies, how we can face the unforgivable, and how even those who have been hurt can learn to love with abandon. Praise for the novels of Erin Bartels "Bartels proves herself a master wordsmith and storyteller."-- Library Journal starred review of All That We Carried "A story of love found in the written word and love found because of the written word."-- Booklist on The Words between Us "A deeply moving story of heartbreak, long-held secrets, and the bonds of family."-- Publishers Weekly starred review of We Hope for Better Things

Erin Bartels is an amazing wordsmith. This is evident in The Girl Who Could Breathe Under Water. It is an intense story of personal and interpersonal struggles. In spite of the wonderful language in this book, it is slow moving, and the characters unengaging. I stopped reading at thirty-five percent as my thoughts strayed more and more to my next read rather than on the current one.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of his book from Revell via NetGalley. All opinions expressed here are my own.
