Water remembers. It holds what we try to forget.
In this haunting and hopeful memoir, Kelly Justus returns to Lake Jocassee-the place where her childhood last felt whole-to confront the currents that shaped her life. What begins as a gentle ripple becomes a powerful undertow: family fractures, unspoken wounds, and the quiet ways a girl learns to disappear beneath the surface.
But water also teaches us how to rise.
Through vivid scenes, golden-lit memories, and the stark truth of trauma, Like Water, I Rise becomes a testament to endurance. To a breath reclaimed. To the woman who emerges when the drowning finally ends.
A story for anyone who has ever risen from the depths and discovered themselves anew.
