This book takes off fast and doesn’t let up. From the very first chapter, Falling had me completely hooked. The concept is wild—a pilot forced to choose between crashing a plane full of passengers or saving his family—and the tension is nonstop. It reads like a blockbuster movie in book form, and I flew through it (pun fully intended).
The pacing is intense, the stakes are sky-high (literally), and the chapters are short and punchy, which makes it hard to stop reading. I also loved how each character had a role to play, and even side characters felt meaningful.
It does lean more action-thriller than deep emotional drama, and a few moments stretched believability—but honestly, that’s part of the fun.
