WINNER UPDATE: Congratulations to Jules for winning the signed trilogy and wristband! 🙂
I’ll never forget how often book #1 (Reason To Breathe) in the Breathing Series was recommended to me (back when I first went crazy over these awesome, intense indie reads). But the recommendations always came with a warning… beware of the crazy ending. Sobbing tears were a BIG thing for many, but readers also knew that book #2 was in the works, and were clamoring for it.
I was DYING to read #1 and purchased it as soon as I found out about it, but was forced to scroll past it as I waited patiently for book #2. And when #2 (Barely Breathing) finally came out I *squeeeeeed* with delight. I was finally getting on the “Breathing” bandwagon, and let me tell you…. WHOA!! Book #1’s ending rocked my world, but I was lucky since I didn’t have to suffer like you guys did to find out… “the rest”. 😉 Dark and intense, and emotionally addicting and I moved right onto the sequel, smug with my incredible luck, until I hit the end of book #2 and realized, while a gentler cliffhanger, it was a cliffhanger nonetheless. His last thought gave me shivers.
