Great Debut

How it Feels to Float is a great debut. It’s clearly a first novel, but that shouldn’t be held against it. Fox has walked onto the scene with a gut-wrenching read about mental health and forgiving yourself. It’s a very honest look at mental illness, within oneself and inside another person. There were some bumps and hiccups here and there, but the writing flows flawlessly throughout. I recommend this as a hard-hitting young adult contemporary, although older audiences who don’t still read YA like me may appreciate this one for its prose. Ultimately, I look forward to picking up any- and everything Fox writes in the future. If you're on the fence about reading it I do highly recommend reading it!
