Drowning
by T.J. Newman
This was an epic story, and I finished it in a day! I haven't done that with a non-audio-book in a while, so it was a refreshing change!
I just couldn't put it down!
When the plane crash happened within the first few pages, I was hesitant. Drowning isn't a super long book (just under 300 pages in the copy I have) and I was still worried that most of it would end up being filler content for the sake of it. But it really wasn't!
From the very first page, I just didn't want to put the book down, and even a few days later, I keep thinking of this book! I loved TJ Newman's inclusion of family dynamics into a stressful situation, and it was such a realistic portrayal of parent-child relationships.
I also loved the rescue mission. Everything felt believable. The end was kind of predictable, (slight) but even without that, it was a brilliant story to follow!
It was great to see the variety of people left on board the plane - some older people, some children, some parents, some flight staff. It was great, and TJ Newman was able to make each person's reactions feel super believable.
I loved this book, and it's safe to say it's likely to end up on my list of favourites for the year!
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for an advance copy of the ebook! I've already ordered myself a physical copy for my collection!

I knew, very early on, that Chris' plan was the one that would end up working, but each hurdle she had to jump over just made her plans even more risky and with a higher chance of failure.It was great to see the variety of people left on board the plane - some older people, some children, some parents, some flight staff.
