Book Reviews of The Dive: A Story of Love and Obsession

Book Review: Enchanting
Summary: 5 Stars

This is just an absolutely compelling book - one that I really couldn't put down. It has a lot of the story of Pipins life and how he grew up under Castro's regime but still managed to find his purpose in life. And then how he met Audrey and the knowing at once that each had found their soulmate. If you feel anything of the passion for the sea you will understand the lure of freediving and why they had to push to the limit. Read it - highly recommended.
