About this listen

Tom and Clara are two struggling academics in their mid-30s who decide to take their first holiday in 10 years. On the flight over to Indonesia, Tom experiences a debilitating panic attack, which he keeps hidden from Clara. At the resort, they meet Madeleine, a charismatic French woman, her Australian partner, Jeremy, and their five-year-old son, Ollie, and the two couples strike up an easy friendship. The holiday starts to look up, even to Tom, who is struggling to get out of his own head. But when Clara and Madeleine become trapped in the maze-like grounds of the hotel during 'the fogging' - a routine spraying of pesticide - the dynamics suddenly shift between Tom and Clara, and the atmosphere of the holiday darkens.

When I read the summary of this, I was hoping for a really good story with suspense. I suffer from panic attacks, but this is pretty much all we here about. I was waiting for some action, but most of this book is spent in background we don't need. His girlfriend was boring and didn't have much personality. I didn't really see where this book was going or the point of it. At the time of writing, I haven't even got to the end of this yet, but having read another reviewer who described it as "ridiculous" and "thought I had two pages stuck together" I'm not holding my breath. Narrator's ok, but that's about all positive I can say about it.

I've never been so bored
