Sushi and Sea Lions
Sushi and Sea Lions | Rachel Corsini
1 post | 1 read
When a career-ending injury and a messy breakup send prima ballerina Daniela Verdi back to Queens, New York, she fills her days with countless distractions: meaningless sex, pinot grigio, and video games. It takes a chance meeting with her brother's best friend, Vincent LaBate, for her to remember who she was before the stage lights and distractions of the Upper West Side. She's convinced that Vincent could never love a girl like her: broken, insecure, and stumbling her way through life. What Daniela didn't count on is that Vincent is as scarred as she is after divorcing his cheating wife and going through an equally messy child custody fight. Soon enough, old vulnerabilities rear their ugly heads, opening a crack in Daniela's perfectly imperfect romance. As Daniela and Vincent's relationship develops, will Daniela learn to accept that a dream life isn't all it's cracked up to be?

The book in itself is thought provoking and laced with heartfelt and heartbreaking moments. While I had trouble connecting with these characters to truly feel these moments, they were extremely well written and for someone who can empathize with either character, especially to love something or someone and lose it in a devastating manner, they will be drawn in and brought to tears.
