In Deep by Terra Elan McVoy
Expected Publication: July 8th, 2014 by Simon Pulse
Genres: Young Adult, Contemporary, Realistic Fiction
Pages: 304
Format: ARC
Source: Local Bookstore (that I do reviews for)
Buy It: Amazon • The Book Depository • Goodreads
Third Sentence:
"I stop her by moving Gavin, who's been lingering around, watching us both." ( page 52)
Thoughts:
I think this sentence pretty much sums up Brynn's relationship with her best friends Grier and a new hot college swimmer, Gavin. Even in the synopsis we are told that its kind of a battle between Brynn and Grier to get Gavin. This sentence perfectly shows this battle, and how Gavin flirting with both of them makes it an even bigger competition between Brynn and Grier. To be honest, I don't think this'll end well.

Ultracompetitive Brynn from The Summer of Firsts and Lasts craves swimming victory—and gets in over her head—in this irresistible novel from Terra Elan McVoy.
Swim.Push.Breathe.Swim.
Nothing else matters to Brynn as she trains her body and mind to win. Not her mediocre grades and lack of real friends at school. Not the gnawing grief over her fallen hero father. Not the strained relationship with her absent mother and clueless stepdad. In the turquoise water, swimming is an escape and her ticket to somewhere—anywhere—else. And nothing will get in her way of claiming victory.
But when the competitive streak follows Brynn out of the pool in a wickedly seductive cat-and-mouse game between herself, her wild best friend, and a hot new college swimmer, Brynn’s single-mindedness gets her in over her head, with much more than a trophy to lose. Synopsis from Goodreads

Third Sentence Thursday used to be a meme hosted by popular book blog Proud Book Nerd, where bloggers open the book they are currently reading to a random page and share the third full sentence with their blog readers.
Seeing as Proud Book Nerd doesn’t seem to be hosting this meme anymore, Thats What She Read started it up so that other interested bloggers can join in the fun too!
