Reviews for Breathing Underwater
Excellent story . . . from an author who, notably, has written unpatronisingly and sensitively about teenager's feelings
The Bookseller
Tremendously moving . . . there's a real romantic animism about the book that will appeal greatly to teenage girls . . . both thought-provoking and reassuring, and it comes very much recommended by me
