Zivan reviewed Adrift in Currents Clean and Clear by Seanan McGuire
Review of 'Adrift in Currents Clean and Clear' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
”It’s a pleasant thing, to linger in currents clean and clear, where we know nothing will hurt us. Sometimes, though, the fishing is better where the water moves quickly. Sometimes, we must move on.”
This is the story of Nadya, The drowned girl. We get to see her journey to her door and beyond it.
It is considerably cozier than previous wayward children novellas.
It is trying to model acceptance of disabilities. Nadya has to deal with people that are selfish and ignorant about disabilities and finds a place that will accept her as she is, but there is no malicious force that she has to deal with as in many of the other doorway stories.
It is a bit strange that despite the emphasis on respecting Nadya's life choices, she does not really choose her doors.
