Breathing Underwater by Alex Flinn

Breathing Underwater by Alex Flinn

To his friends, popular and handsome sixteen-year-old Nick Andreas has led a charmed life. But the guys in Nick's anger management class know differently. So does his ex-girlfriend Caitlin. Now it looks like the only person who doesn't realize how far from perfect Nick's life has become is Nick himself.

“The messages of teenage love turned dangerous are powerful, and this highly recommended book should be required reading for all teenagers” — Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) “A quick and absorbing read. The situations and dialogue ring frighteningly true.” — ALA Booklist “An open and honest portrayal of an all-too-common problem.” — School Library Journal “Gripping.” — Publishers Weekly “An outstanding first novel. An important book.” — KLIATT “Flinn’s use of Nick as narrator is unusual and provocative, and there’s impact as well as insight in his long refusal to acknowledge his own culpability.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
