I want to think diversity & representation focus like Open Waters by Caleb Azumah Nelson, which I found in Waterstones this summer and fell in love with, but someone I know in publishing told me that moment has now passed, so I don't know. :/ Think there's a popular subgenre - weird girl lit - which I'm totally for!

@Jane D Ooh I like this - feel like it's hinting at being UpLit - which I'm really into atm! I agree with Issy about identifying and amplifying the tension.

@Yvonne McMillan Clear stakes and clear tension! Agree about the adjectives, especially opening few sentences - could strip out a couple without losing the claustrophobic feel

@Louis Urbanowski Already like the voice and humour of the first few lines. Slightly distracted by the verb 'fondled' - not sure why!
