The Breathless

Great cover on this one. Good representation of the story. Good use of graphics. Great comosition and title work as well.



This was an impressive debut novel by this author that is for sure. I enjoyed it a lot. It was well written and paced. It was atmospheric in the setting. The plot was engaging and kept me turning the pages. It was creepy and dark in places. There were twists and turns. The characters were interesting and well developed. My only issue and why I took a star off was the ending. It just left me confused. I assumed through most of the book that Cage had been raised by someone after his accident on his motorcycle. I mean the clues all lead in that direction. He pops back up after a year (coincidently right before the time passes for raising someone expires). He has all the signs of someone who has been risen. Then when Mae burned the book, it released him. But who raised him? If he died then were was his body for the entire year? What happened to him? Is my thinking even correct? Was he even raised?? Basically WTF happened at the end?? If anyone can help a girl out with answers, please drop me a line!
