Breathless by Amy McCulloch

Cecily could only hope she was ready.

- Reader, she was not

I did not realize when I read that line that it would summarize the whole story. This journalist? Writer? Interviewer? Was not ready for any of this really slow and not very suspenseful story.

Cecily Wong is chosen to interview this famous mountaineer who is going to summit his last mountain while leading a team. Cecily was chosen to interview him, but only if she makes it to the summit. She was not ready to climb this mountain nor was she ready for all the other shenanigans.

I wish I could say I didn't know who did the bad things, but it was obvious and not that interesting.
