What I Did Like:
-Penelope! Right from the start I was dropped into her head and feeling exactly what she felt. Considering we start on page 1 with a panic attack, that was intense. I felt myself wanting to breathe with/for her! Throughout the book she is WELL written and it’s a great glimpse into panic attacks.
-David. He’s a genuinely good guy and I like him right away. He’s being cautious and guarded, but he’s also helping in any way he can.
-Thrilling second half. The book definitely reminds you that you’re dealing with a mystery/thriller with that solid ending. I hit a spot where I was just not going to be able to put it down. It gives you that great feeling of fear and anticipation that thrillers are named for.
Who Should Read This One:
-Readers who like thrills without being completely immersed in a scary story.
-Readers who want a character with realistic depiction of panic attacks.
My Rating: 4 Stars. This one will appeal to contemporary fans who like thrills.
