Been working on updating my Goodreads...

I read this back in 2011 and absolutely loved it! It was my first introduction to a Stockholm Syndrome trope, and I ate every bit of it up.

The writing was immersive, and the characters were so easy to fall in love with.

10/10 recommend!

One word to describe this book would be boring. The story is very anticlimactic and lacks any flavor just lots of boring details about shit that doesn't matter. Could have fallen asleep. 

I didn't love it. It was intriguing because you wanted to know what happens next but Overall, pretty uneventful and slightly frustrating.
adventurous challenging emotional tense medium-paced

A truly interesting book through the eyes of a kidnap victim and her relationship with her captor. A quick and easy read but it keeps you hooked and wanting to know how it all ends.

Woah! I was completely surprised by how much I enjoyed this book.

This is the kind of book that I can definitely read over and over and over and over again and not get bored or uninterested.

I had all kinds of feels while reading this book. I simply cannot put it down. Believe me, I tried.

I...have no words.
