This book. I read it. And it gave me feels. Sometimes the narrative. Drove me crazy. Sometimes The Ty. Drove me crazy. Sometimes The Gemma. Drove me crazy. Sometimes The Camel. Made me laugh. Okay, in all seriousness, if anyone wants a test for how much “crazy” they have, this book is it. All you ha...

The awkward moment when I put a kidnapping story in my "travel-i-want" shelf...But, god, those descriptions of a desolate Australian landscape far from the noise and chaos of society and surrounded by the serenity of the wilderness are so gorgeous that it did make me wish I was there.Which is suprem...

I can't decide whether I should give this 3 or 4 stars. Right now, it's at 3.5.I was a little hesitant about reading Stolen, what with it being about a teenager being abducted, buy now I realise I needn't have worried much. It was, in my opinion, fairly tame and at times not very realistic.I can und...

It's been a couple of days since I've read this and now as I sit here and write a review why do I feel sad all over again? Why do I remember those paint made from rocks and it makes me want to ugly cry again? Sigh.I've read plenty of stellar reviews about this book, but since I'm really not a fan of...

I expected this book to be a 5 stars, or even a solid 4 stars but no. This was a meh book for me. The first chapter lived up to my expectation : the tension during the encounter of Gemma and Ty in the airport was toying with my nerves. But then it all went downhill. I hadn't the patience to read des...

I'd had this book on my to-read list for a while and had heard such good things so I was glad that one of the book clubs I'm in chose this as one of their monthly reads. I was a bit worried when I started that I would end up liking Ty, and while I certainly felt sympathetic about certain aspects of ...

There are so many 5 star ratings for Stolen that I'm almost hesitant to write my less than enthusiastic response. The writing was lovely, the characters were dimensional, but I did not connect with them emotionally like this book seemed to require in order to fully enjoy this. The one thing that def...

There is understanding the concept of Stockholm Syndrome, and then there is experiencing it.

Gemma, sixteen, is taken from the bustling airport in Bangkok and stolen away to the deep, endless Australian wilderness. She is determined to survive, to escape, but the Australian desert proves itself to be much more dangerous than her captor. Ty is dangerous too, however. Strong. Unstable. But th...

Sometimes, when the masses say that a book is a must-read and make you feel like a social pariah for not having read it yet, you should listen to them. Such is the case with Lucy Christopher's Stolen. I've had the hardcover since I snagged it cheap-like from Borders before it bit the big one, but ...
