How to breath underwater

How to Breathe Underwater - Julie Orringer

The stories are dark, what it is not that bad, if it weren't because of the lack of hope in them. The plots average is a 2 stars, but I'm up grading it to 2.5 since the writing is beautiful.

Stories:

Pilgrims *
When she is Old and I am Famous **
The Isabel Fish ****
Note to Sixth-Grade Self *
The Smoothest Way is Full of Stones ***
Care **
Stars of Motown Shining Bright ****
What We Save **
Stations of the Cross *
