Taut, compulsive, and unsettling ... SWEAT had me holding my breath until the final, brilliant end * Jennie Godfrey * Sweat will keep you guessing until the very last page… * Vogue Williams * Will have you glued to the story through every twist and turn. I absolutely loved it! * Kate Hamer * Part pulsing psychological thriller, part subversive meditation on the way we use (and abuse) our bodies, part noir-ish twisted revenge fantasy, SWEAT is like nothing I’ve ever read before. So addictive it made me miss a tube stop, so unsettling it made me think twice about going to the gym! * Sara Collins * An inspired set-up. A clever dynamic that paves the way for a cat-and-mouse thriller. Propulsive * Sunday Times * A maze-like game of revenge. Unsettling. Blends a critique of wellness culture with a slow-burn feminist thriller * Observer * Emma Healey's tale of control and revenge will have you hooked till the final page -- The Style List * Stylist * If you spend all of January trying to avoid diet culture, then you need to read this book * Cosmopolitan * A modern thriller about revenge, self-discipline, and control -- Eva Wiseman * Observer Magazine * Taut and twisty ... claustrophobic psychological tale ... becomes a slow-burn revenge thriller. Takes full advantage of shifting perspectives and disorientating power dynamics as acts of retribution escalate * Mail on Sunday *
