READER VIEWS EDITORIAL REVIEW
What a powerful story! It showcases the resilient human spirit, and how it’s never too late for new beginnings and finding love. . .The world building is rich and full of life. The atmosphere and natural environment descriptions brought me into the story, alongside the characters. Hopeful, emotionally driven, and rooted in environmental themes. Highly recommend for teens and adults of all ages to enjoy and be inspired by forever.

“Thank you so much for sharing this book with me. It was a great story and left me feeling inspired and hopeful. I loved how you connected a world-wide issue with characters that readers can empathize with and be inspired by. I also love how you explored themes of self-identity. It is something all teenagers are going through, and gives us hope to read about somebody who reached a happy end to their journey.”
Jennifer Comeau, author
“In Sheltzer’s masterful prose, the characters navigate grief and loss, discovering resilience in order to live fully in times of disruption. Lush descriptions of Thailand and Finland, as well as researched details about regenerative living draw the reader into the interconnected world of climate impacts we cannot escape. Lady of the Waves is an unflinching and ultimately bouyant novel.”
