Just Breathe
By: Andrew Daddo
Location: FIC DAD
Genre: Coming of Age
Hendrix’s father has a vision – to see Hendrix run for Australia at the Olympics. His days are completely mapped out – what he eats, when he trains, when he sleeps, even the air he breathes.
There was never room in that vision for a girl, especially in the lead-up to the Nationals. Yet fate works in funny ways, and when Hendrix literally bowls Emily over on a training run, he just can’t get her out of his head. His life and priorities take a turn as he falls for her.
But Emily has a deadly secret that she’s scared to share even with Hendrix. As their bond grows and Hendrix strays further from his father’s strict regime, the tension builds to a heart-wrenching climax.
"it’s a story about love and family. There are always problems in a family and it’s hard to solve. If each other chooses to listen, everything will be fixed. Particularly, Hendrix doesn’t know why he has to run for the competition and what is the goal of it. He just takes the training because his father would like it, it’s not because he loves it. And then, he chooses to quit the training and everything because he doesn’t what he is looking for. He just knows he loves Emily and he needs to be with her. Then his father finds him and they have a serious talk about what’s going on and they solve family problems. It’s just the way how people fix things. If they used the right strategy, they can make things better. "My Nham- Goodreads
