Wow, this book exceeded my expectations. Sienna(Sea to her friends) is a 15 year old girl whose mother and father are relief workers who help after natural disasters. However, a few years prior, her mother's plane was lost in the ocean during a trip on one of these trips. Ever since then, Sea has had a fear of planes and has stayed away from the ocean. This is significant because her nickname comes from the fact that she was so at home in the water and was an impressive surfer to boot. Well, her dad books a surprise trip to Indonesia to help all of the people affected by the tsunami and he wants Sienna to come with him. She swallows her fear and goes and learns so much about life in another culture and about herself. While at the orphanage in Indonesia she meets a sweet, handsome, and free-spirited boy named Deni and they automatically click. The story is full of heart and feeling and I'm so glad I chose to read it. Definitely one of my favorites I've read this year...however, everyone may not feel the same, this is just my opinion. :)
