About this deal

Charles strolled over to a collection of leather armchairs in the lobby. “Come on, let’s go say hi before he’s mobbed by fans.” Zak started walking over before he had even finished his sentence. Cecily lingered behind, still searching for her pen. Seeing Charles in the flesh for the first time in months brought home what she was about to attempt.

Breathless by Amy McCulloch - This Is My Everybody Review | Breathless by Amy McCulloch - This Is My Everybody

This is essentially a climbing thriller. There are some twists and turns in this story which were ok. All in all I found this quite interesting and entertaining as a read. I don't think I was fully convinced by it though. I doubt anyone who has read true stories of high mountain climbing would be convinced by this but I'm sure quite many people will be entertained. 3.5/5 An attempt like this is hard enough without suspecting that a murderer in on the mountain with you. She's heard rumors about McVeigh and they aren't good. That he might be cheating on his "clean" climbs, that people have died in his vicinity. Are those rumors spread by people jealous of his success? And now someone else has died right before they start the climb. At a time when Cecily needs to be at her best, she's having trouble sleeping, eating, and doing her best to stay focused on the climb, because she can't help also investigating all the strange things going on with the people around her. Is the anger and suspicion she sees and hears part of the stress of a climb that can take your life on the best days, is her imagination running away with her, is she going to mess this attempt up, too?So, I love reading books (or movies!) that take me on a mountaineering adventure. It is super interesting to me to gain insight into those who do make the choice to push their body beyond extreme physical boundaries. How they do it? And why do they do it? I must say that I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, as I know nothing about climbing at all. Teaching you how to simplify your life, home and business by helping you make decisions step-by-step without becoming overwhelmed with where to start… Or what to do next… I hear ya. Oh, look who’s just arrived!” Zak pointed over her shoulder at the lift doors. “Isn’t that Charles?”
