2.16 The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler

Y'all know how much I love octopuses from our Season 1 Episode 16 (I didn't even plan this!) discussion of Remarkably Bright Creatures. So, I had a feeling I was going to at least enjoy Nayler's debut novel, The Mountain in the Sea. But I was no prepared to love it as much as I did. Nayler is able to dive deep into questions about consciousness, humanity, and communication without losing the readers and having some of the main characters be octopuses! I honestly can't recommend this enough and it might be my favorite book I have read so far this year.
