This is one of the best psychological thrillers I have read in a long time! The book description made me curious enough to get the book and start reading it immediately, and I finished it in two sittings. It's not often that I come across a novel that pulls me in completely and makes me forget I have other things to do. "I'm Living But I'm Not Alive" was one of the few.The action is well-paced, the plot is complex, and the characters are very believable. I liked the fact that no one was entirely good, just as no one was entirely evil, and each character had his/her own reasons for acting in certain ways. Daman is an intriguing guy, especially because, on the one hand, he is ruthless and he is feared by those who know him, but, on the other hand, he cares a lot about his family, and tries to keep it safe. He was often put in situations when he had to make difficult choices. Eventually, as a reader, you start asking yourself how you would have reacted in similar circumstances. This gave the character depth and made me turn the pages as fast as possible to see what he'll do next.
