Hanni Kohn sends her daughter away to save her from the Nazi Regime. Ettie a rabbi's daughter runsaway from home to save herself from the Nazi Regime and Ava who is a Jewish Mystical creature created to keep Lea safe.
I loved this book. I usually do not pick up a book with magical realism because it's not for me but this only had a tad bit in it. The flow of the story worked so well for me that I finished it quickly. This story broke my heart over and over again into tiny little pieces. Some of the characters we meet and their back story oh my heart couldn't handle it. This story is written beautifully and wondered how the author was going to end it. Great job!

The First Time She Drowned is a hard hitting reading book dealing with abuse, mental and physical, mother daughter relationships, friendships, dating,The First Time She Drowned is a hard hitting reading book dealing with abuse, mental and physical, mother daughter relationships, friendships, dating, etc. This book starts off with the main protagonist in the mental institution which I enjoyed reading from that aspects but she turns 18 and is legally discharged. So when Cassie is discharged she ends up at college where she needs to learn new skills in her life. There is the flashbacks which are necessary to find out why Cassie is acting out or what is hidden deep down inside that is hurting her. I felt like this was a 3 .75 read for me....more

I thought they come bacWhen I started this I thought this was a book about two people who meet because the boys mother cleans the girls family house. I thought they come back together years later and fall in love. Which is some what the synopsis but not really. I didnt really care for their chemistry. Or even the "games" they played with each other. It was like they wouldn't see each other and then they would and they would have sex. Then separate again and then repeat. A little frustrating is what I took from it. 🤷♀️ 3⭐⭐⭐...more
