Synopsis:

Angels Can't Swim is a novella dealing with mental health, sexuality, and abuse issues in college swimmers.

Angels Can’t Swim is an original, honest coming-of-age novella that examines what goes on behind the scenes for three college swimmers. Jenna, Maggie, and Eden are each incredibly different in their personalities and struggles, yet under pressure they must come together in this compelling story of friendship and what it means to be a good teammate. While balancing the pressures of swimming at a high level and also dealing with the realities of college life, the three young women grow immensely as individual people and in their bonds with each other. In portraying these bonds, the novella tackles important issues such as eating disorders and what it means to be an LGBTQ young person. This intense, unforgettable novella is a must-read for young adults, college students, and all people who wish to take a glimpse into a world not often seen.

Heather Jadhav | 8 comments Angels Can't Swim by Alexandra McCann Review
Angels Can't Swim is an intelligently written coming of age novella, perfect length for a weekend read.
It documents the tribulations of three young women, each caught up with their own personal and diverse life events. They are united in their shared love of swimming. The characters were carefully crafted and had enough drama in their tales to make the narrative compelling whilst steering around the difficult subjects each of which could have led down an uncomfortable rabbit hole.
Coach Ted possibly got off too lightly for my British tastes but I felt the author painted a believable and cautionary picture of how genuine and plausible a predatory male can be.
