⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | New Favorite Alert!

Breathe In, Bleed Out grabbed me by the throat from page one and never let go. This book is sharp, smart, and absolutely unrelenting—in the best way possible. If you’re a fan of dark Hollywood thrillers with a surreal, satirical edge and a gut-punch of emotional depth, you’re going to devour this.

Brian McAuley masterfully blends horror, noir, and psychological suspense in a way that feels both totally original and eerily familiar. The story pulses with anxiety, dread, and biting social commentary. I couldn’t look away—and I didn’t want to.

The narrative is slick, the pacing flawless, and the imagery unforgettable. There are moments that made me physically tense, and others that broke my heart. And the ending? Pitch-perfect.

New favorite. Easily. This is the kind of book you finish and immediately want to talk about. Highly recommended.
