It’s difficult to say that I enjoyed reading this book but I can say that it is a very well written and compelling story. It is also horrifying and disturbing. And it’s brilliant because it tells a story that I doubt many authors could pull off. It does so with respect and without trivialising or se...
"I do not fall. I fell so hard so long ago there is nothing left for me to land on. I justkeep falling and falling and falling.After some thought, I have come to the conclusion that this book deserves 5 stars. No doubt.After all this time, I still don't know what to say about Living Dead Girl. Beaut...
I wasn't expecting much from such a short book, but that definitely fit in a big dose of depressing. Living Dead Girl is about Alice. She was abducted when she was 10 by a man named Ray, who rapes her. He constantly tells her that she is HIS little girl, her name is Alice, and that if she is good th...
Pros: * Incredibly hard to read* Great use of an unreliable narrator* Scary, thought provokingCons: * Incredibly hard to read* Horrible subject matter* A lot of OMFG moments Reading this was like watching a Law and Order: SVU episode from the victim's POV. Difficult subject matter handled in a beaut...
I gave this book 5 stars because it is eye opening. It cannot be described as good or bad, it cannot be called a beautiful story. It is disturbing and brutal but honest also which is why I gave it 5 stars. This book is about the abduction of Kyla Davis "Alice", she is kept alive but dead inside by a...
I picked this up at the library yesterday and read it in one sitting. Here is the summary:Once upon a time, I was a little girl who disappeared. Once upon a time, my name was not Alice. Once upon a time, I didn’t know how lucky I was. When Alice was ten, Ray took her away from her family, her friend...
3 1/2 stars.This book is not the kind of horror that Becky means when she says horror. However, this book is HORRORifying. It’s about abduction and abuse, from psychological to physical to sexual. It is all kinds of effed up. And for that reason, it’s difficult to say much about it. I’ll try my best...
This is from my blog http://onlectus.blogspot.com/2012/07/living-dead-girl-by-elizabeth-scott.htmlIt is hard to think that a teenager can go through so much and not do anything about it. But then, she was taken at the age of 10, thus for five years Ray has been molding Alicia to be the way she is no...
I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around this one. I think that the Goodreads summary says it best: This is Alice's story. It is one you have never heard, and one you will never, ever forget.This is a book that I wish I could forget having read, because it seriously gave me the creeps. I al...
