Try Not to Breathe by Holly Seddon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Alex is sinking. Slowly but surely, she’s cut herself off from everything but her one true love – drink. Until she’s forced to write a piece about a coma ward, where she meets Amy.
Alex and Amy grew up in the same suburbs, played the same music, flirted with the same boys. And as Alex begins to investigate the attack, she opens the door to the same danger that has left Amy in a coma…
This is a tale of obsession. Alex is obsessed with alcohol and then becomes obsessed with Amy. All characters are well drawn, even if they are not likeable and I found the medical side of it very interesting. It was a well-paced, enjoyable read. I received a review copy via Netgalley.
Try Not to Breathe is available from Amazon here.
