Cheri reviewed Try not to breathe by Holly Seddon
Review of 'Try not to breathe' on 'Storygraph'
4 stars
While this wasn't a perfect book, I absolutely enjoyed it and was engaged from beginning to end.
I just wrote a much more detailed review for my site and my brain seems to be cramping up looking for what to say here but I think fans of dark suspense and mysteries would enjoy Try Not to Breathe.
Like I said, it's not perfect - there are some aspects that don't ring true, there's a POV that seems unnecessary, the thrilling climax wasn't very thrilling, but, all in all, I liked it a lot and if a sequel comes to be, I'll definitely pick it up. For a debut novel, I think it was pretty damn well done and shows a lot of promise for future offerings.
I received an ARC from NetGalley (yay for checking one off my long list of NG books to be read and reviewed!) in exchange …
