stateofiction 's review for:
Breathe In, Bleed Out
by Brian McAuley
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing an early copy in exchange for an honest review.
You know when you're watching a horror movie, particularly a slasher, and you're screaming at the main character during a tense moment for doing something dumb but at the same time you can't take your eyes away from the screen? That's this book. It captures the feeling of a slasher so much better than most other slasher books out there, and I literally could not put it down. I feel as though horror/slasher books tend to stray away from that since we're more in their heads than we are in movies, so when I get the movie feel from a book it really means something to me. After reading the author's note I can really see all the influences and passion behind this as well.
