About this listen

In this robust, elegantly plotted, and ultimately life-affirming novel, Zoe Whittall presents a dazzling portrait of the Millennial Generation - the 25-year-olds who grew up on anti-anxiety meds, text-messaging each other truncated emotional reactions, unsure of what's public and what's private.

Holding Still explores an unusual love triangle involving Billy, a former teen idol, now an anxiety-ridden agoraphobic; Josh, a shy transgendered paramedic who travels the city patching up damaged bodies; and Amy, a fashionable filmmaker coping with her first broken heart.

With this extraordinary novel, Whittall gives us startlingly real portraits of three unforgettable characters and proves herself to be one of our most talented writers.

My kind of novel.

Might not be for everyone, but I thought it was great. Dark. Real. I feel as though I know these characters in real life. I’m onto my next Zoe book.

This seemed poorly executed.

It was very obvious that the people narrating were not Canadian since the book was full of mispronounciations. The story overall was also hard to get through and couldn't keep my attention.
