I loved everything about this book! Great story, full of facts and information about a world few of us will ever really know. Exquisitely written, the author paints pictures with her words.highly recommend.

Beautifully written and blended exploration of life by, on and with the sea for both the author and other sea creatures. Having grown up by the ocean I found it brought back many experiences of the salt, wind and waves. My only disappointment is that the publisher doesn’t seem to have bothered with having a human proofread the text and there were quite a few spots w glaring errors, e.g, a reference to macaroni living alongside penguins on Bird Island rather than a correct reference to Marconi penguins! This seems to be more and more common and I assume publishers are relying on a program to do this and it isn’t an effective approach.

Love love love this book. Every sentence is a treat. It’s such a joy to read. Feels like poetry.

Move Like Water is an exquisitely written memoir about Hannah Stowe’s lifelong love of, and work for, the sea. This book resonated with me because I’m a “daughter of the sea” myself, although not nearly as brave as Hannah is….I love the sea from the water’s edge and have never swam in the cold waters. This book also hit home as she describes how chronic pain affects your life: body, soul and mind and how you can still achieve your dreams by giving in to the pain when needed and doing what you want inspire of the pain when you can. Do not skip the very last chapter. In this chapter you learn how, with choices that you make, YOU can help the sea regardless of where you live.
This poem by my favorite poet Pablo Neruda came to to mind often while reading this book and I want to add it to my review and dedicate it to the author, Hannah Stowe.

Sonnet XXXIV (You are the daughter of the sea) by Pablo Neruda

You are the daughter of the sea, oregano's first cousin.
Swimmer, your body is pure as the water;
cook, your blood is quick as the soil.
Everything you do is full of flowers, rich with the earth.

Your eyes go out toward the water, and the waves rise;
your hands go out to the earth and the seeds swell;
you know the deep essence of water and the earth,
conjoined in you like a formula for clay.

Naiad: cut your body into turquoise pieces,
they will bloom resurrected in the kitchen.
This is how you become everything that lives.

And so at last, you sleep, in the circle of my arms
that push back the shadows so that you can rest--
vegetables, seaweed, herbs: the foam of your dreams

Really impressed with the maturity and introspection of this young author. She has a real way with words and weaves a beautiful story that manages to be both a memoir and an ode to the sea. I was fascinated by her personal life and the ups and downs that she has gone through but I was equally as invested in her descriptions of the various marine life that she has chosen to spotlight.

I think this book is for anyone who loves the ocean, conservation, art, and a well-written memoir.

Move Like Water: My Story of the Sea by Hannah Stowe is a beautifully written memoir and journal full of nature, the open waters, and all of the unknown.

This book is a wonderful combination of personal memoir, nature journal, nonfiction, and brings to light not only the author’s own story and path, but the fundamental questions we all reflect upon while we are surrounded by nature and the ever vast seas.

The author does a wonderful job portraying her personal experiences and observations, but also the world and our relationship with it, when looking at several creatures that she has encountered and learned from in her travels and studies.

The images she creates on paper became very emotional and vivid for me, and I found myself more than once almost feeling as if I was experiencing what she has and finding myself reflecting on my life, my purpose, my path, and how my faith guides me in these issues.

Very lovely and though-provoking.

Every sentence was a poem itself. I got lost in those beautiful words.
A really well written and researched book about the ocean, the interesting life story of the young author and all the amazing creatures to whom those waters should belong to.

Love love love!
Such a wonderful blend of poetic story telling, factual learning + personal growth. I loved every second of this book, the insight in to Stowe’s own personal journey, the way the book was structured, the poetic language and so much more.
