Tatsiana Savastenia savasteniatatsiana — Aussie Book challenge 2011 #6 3.5stars Saltwater Moons is a book about messy teenage actions and the consequences and lessons of those actions. It's about the confusion of firsts, betrayal and ultimately self discovery. This book actually really surprised me once it was all said and done. I liked it but at the same time it felt unsettlingly. Julie Gittus pens a very conflicting plot, quickening the emotions in her readers from rage to hope, which is my favorite part of reading, so while I didn't quite agree with some of the choices in this story, I was still very much invested to seeing where it would go. This book was more character driven then anything else, which I actually liked since it worked for this kind of storyline. Funny enough I didn't hate Mark. I didn't particularly like him either, but I was prepared to hate him after reading a few reviews. I agree that he's a jerk and could be a total asswipe, and I didn't like a lot of things he said and did with Sun, but I found him to be very realistic character (sad but true). He definitely liked his fill of sex, which at first, I thought that's all he wanted, but in his own warped way I could see that he actually cared about Sun. I'm not excusing his self-absorbed ways mind you, just recognizing him for the guy he is and the man that he could have been. He had his moments, both good and bad. As for Sun, she seemed to confuse me throughout the story and yet I understood her most of all. She never seemed very happy to be with Mark, and yet she stayed with him. It almost felt like she was settling, couldn't be with the guy she wants so she just went through the motions with Mark, letting him pull her along on strings, but then there were times that she seemed happy as well. Then there were her feeling for Tycho, which oddly enough was never explored fully. Sun was a very conflicting character and I don't think she actually knew what she wanted, which I guess is true enough when your a teenager handling the pressures of relationships. There isn't a lot I have to say about Tycho. He seems like a nice guy and I liked how they shared poetry, but there wasn't much of him in this book to gather an actual connection. All in all, I really enjoyed this book. It's a story about longing and wanting but I don't believe that this story as anything to do with love. Sun cared for both Mark and Tycho in different ways and in their own way they cared for Sun. But I think this book has more to do with the idea of love and the possibilities of hope. I might have not always agreed with what was said and done in this book, but it's a completely compelling read from start to finish.
