Every Breath by Ellie Marney
3.0
So, this was a hard book to rate. I really liked the premise of this book. Set in modern-day Melbourne, Australia, two teenagers, James Mycroft and Rachel Watts decide to investigate the murder of their friend when they find him dead by the Melbourne Zoo. It's a creative new take on Sherlock Holmes. The mystery was compelling and kept me reading. There is also a blooming romance between Mycroft and Watts.
The major problem that I had with this book was the language. There is A LOT of swearing, including the use of the F-word. I almost DNF this because of the language. If you are offended by a lot of swearing, then I don't think I would recommend it. There are some adult issues as well, so I wouldn't recommend this to younger teens. There is also teen smoking and drinking.
