The Same Water

About this book

Empathy is power.For two years, Shaye Devereaux's anxiety has consumed her life. Friends have drifted away, she's given up on boys, and she's failed her junior year. But an unbelievable offer gives Shaye hope of a fresh start. Pathos Conservatory, an elite prep school founded on the business of empathy, believes Shaye is the perfect fit for their summer program. Pathos is building up a force of influencers, training them on the power of understanding human emotions. Guiding her on her journey is her nineteen-year-old mentor, Ephram. Irritatingly handsome, Ephram is flirty yet distant... until he isn't.While navigating her complicated feelings about Ephram, Pathos exposes Shaye and her new friends to the power of empathy. Delving into memories of others is just the beginning of their training. For Shaye, however, some memories should never be experienced twice. But when Shaye's awakened abilities catch the attention of leadership, it soon becomes clear there is much more going on with Pathos-and Ephram-than she knows. One choice could alter Shaye's life forever-will she be ready to make it? If you love the romantic chemistry and futuristic technology of Divergent and the provocative vibes of Delirium and The Darkest Minds, then you'll be captivated by The Same Water.
