The Living is about some kids that work on a cruise for the summer to make some extra money.  Carmen and Shy just start getting along and next thing you know the boat is sinking and Shy and Carmen lose each other.  Now it is just Shy and Addie, who previously did not get along, on a tiny boat trying to get fresh water and food.  In a twisted turn of events the turn out ok, sort of.

Opinion: 

What I liked about this book was the word choice. It gave you new words to put in your vocabulary.  I also liked the theme- it was thrilling scary and romantic. The suspense was very good; it made you wait along time to find out, which makes you want to keep reading.  What I didn’t like was the very end, because I didn't feel like it ended the best it could have. But overall it was a GREAT book!
