martymjj 's review for:
Captive in the Underworld
by Lianyu Tan
DID NOT FINISH: 30%
It was disturbing. The writing was terrible but that is the least of this book's problems. There is a romaticization of rape, torure both physical and emotional. How can someone write this and get published is beyond me. I quit this book on the scene of the wedding night... It was a rape, plain and simple.
It was a bad read from the start but the more you read the worse it gets. The main character is abused by everyone in the book, her mother first and when she meets her captor/love intrest it only gets worse. It's a neverending spiral of violence.
