Morgan Sheppard (1036 KP) created a post

Talise didn't choose any of this. She came to Llyn Du with her notebooks and her questions, looking for the kind of truth you can measure. What she found instead was a man carrying a sorrow older than she can fathom, a red thread she never asked for, and a goddess waiting patiently between hill and sea who had already written her name into something ancient.

STILL WATERS, DEEP is a story about being found by a destiny rather than chasing one, and about whether love, when it asks you to sacrifice, can still be something freely given. I think it can. I hope you will, too.

ARCs are available now, ahead of the 17th April release. If old magic, Welsh mythology, and a romance that aches in all the right places sound like your kind of reading, click on the link below. 🌊💙

the story
Good read for anyone
This is a great middle grade book. The story is compelling and deep. Tristan is a boy who is struggling with growing up, figuring out how to deal with losing his best friend, and feeling like a disappointment to his parents and grandparents. It's a rollercoaster of feelings and a great story.
If you don't know anything or much about African American or African folktales or mythology, it's ok. I really know only two (John Henry the reason why I bought the book.) and have only a passing knowledge of some of the characters and others I didn't know at all. And that didn't distract from the story. I will be looking the stories up because I want to know more about them. That kind of curiosity is something that I feel makes a great book.
I look forward to reading the next story.
