Why read it?
1 author picked Crossing Oceans as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
It’s been years since I first read Crossing Oceans and it has stuck with me, its message so moving, so challenging, so compelling, that I can’t forget it.

From Sarah's list on to give you all the feels.
