Buoyancy Alexandria Laporte

Best friends since the first day of Kindergarten, Matty and Aly thought that together they could get through anything. They stood stronger together than apart and seemed an invincible pair. That is until the end of 10th grade when an unthinkable travesty shatters their friendship and forces them to separately and grievously pick up the lonely pieces of their broken hearts. Souls now shadowed with loss and despair, they each journey into adulthood one half of their former self. It is not until they are 24 years old and well into their own adult lives that they are reunited, but under the most dire of circumstances. Old wounds are torn open as one of them painfully embarks on the emotional journey towards the other, fiercely and desperately clinging onto hope that it is not too late. Buoyancy is a story about love, friendship, family, perserverance and hope. A feel good, easy read that will make you want to keep turning pages.
