Exit by Belinda Bauer

dark emotional slow-paced

2.0

Felix Pink is an Exiteer, a stranger who sits with a terminally ill person whilst they commit suicide. Exiteers are forbidden to assist (commit euthanasia) so they skirt the law on assisted suicide, but they must go in pairs and they use fake names. Felix aka John has sat with several people but this time he is accompanied by a new Exiteer, a young girl named Amanda, and something goes wrong. Somehow the wrong person ends up dead, and Felix is now wanted for murder.

I requested this as I have read Snap by the author and enjoyed it, but unfortunately this one didn't live up to my expectations. I found the MC to be rather dull to be honest, and I expected it to take a darker turn, given the subject matter, than it did. My thoughts seem to be in the minority as many other reviewers seemed to like it, so it obviously was just not my cup of tea.

Thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Random House UK/Transworld, for the opportunity to read an ARC. I am voluntarily giving an honest review.
