Baby Doll by Hollie Overton
4.0
Escaping from her captor, Lily adjusts to life after being a victim of kidnapping, rape, and abuse-- among other things. Now with her daughter, Sky, Lily must adapt to what her life is eight years after being abducted. Told from Lily's mother's point of view, Lily's twin sister, Lily herself, as well as her captor, this tells the stories of the lives that take place after Lily returns home.
I wasn't sure how I felt about this book at first but it was a very well written story. From the different points of view, to the pain and hurt you're able to feel through the characters. No character in this book is perfect. I found myself frustrated with some of them and angry about their actions, but I realized that they were written TO be flawed. They all have things they don't do correct and they all make mistakes. That's what makes this story relatable, even if you've never known a kidnapping victim or were never kidnapped, the author does a great job at making sure the readers relate to the characters. Very well done!
