The Story
Rachel Watts is an unwilling new arrival to Melbourne from the country. James Mycroft is
her neighbour, an intriguingly troubled seventeen-year-old genius with a passion for
forensics. Despite her misgivings, Rachel finds herself unable to resist Mycroft when he
wants her help investigating a murder. And when Watts and Mycroft follow a trail to the
cold-blooded killer, they find themselves in the lion's den - literally.

The Review
A big thanks to the publisher for sending me a review copy of this book!
Okay, so the publicist asked me did I want of copy of this book prior to its release and Iactually declined because I was really busy at uni and I also didn't think this book was forme at the time as well. But the publisher ended up sending me a copy anyway and I waslucky enough to have some quiet time to spare, so I ended up reading this book despitewhat I thought and boy am I kicking myself right now and THANK GOD for the publishersending me a copy of this book because MY GOD this book was just SO GOOD and I'mSO HAPPY I got a chance to read this one, even when I initially declined a request toread it. Ah, it's just so good!
EVERY BREATH is probably one of my favourite books coming from this year (literally!)and I think that's because, one, it is based on Sherlock Holmes, and two, because it hasan Australian background setting, which we don't see very often in YA books or rather Ipersonally don't across too many great Australian titles lately and that's a shame reallybecause I should be reading more Australian books. But yeah, this book went beyond myown expectations and even though it's not amazing on epic, full-blown action levels, butthe book is just so enjoyable to a point where you finish the book and not even realizethat you've just finished the book . . . you know? It's that kind of amazing so I'm prettyimpressed with this book right now.
In regards to the main characters, Rachel Watts and James Mycroft, I just adored thesetwo characters and loved everything about them. They not only had great sense of humorand meshed so well together as a duo team, but their personalities and their mannerismsalone are so like Sherlock Holmes and Watson's characters and that's - to put it simply -truly awesome because I love the whole Holmes and Watson relationship. So just youwait readers, because Rachel and James are perfect together - whether they're in friend orcheeky-romantic mode . . . they're just lovely and the chemistry between these two areseriously too awesome to even explain in this book. They just make the perfect team youguys!
Overall, EVERY BREATH went beyond my own expectations and I love it when a bookproves me wrong on so many accounts. It just makes a book even greater through myeyes and I love it for making me have all of these 'feels' right now. So this book wasfantastic and I can't bloody wait for the sequel because if it's anything like this book . . .then I'm going to be crazy by the time I get my hands on the sequel! Crazy I tell you!
