So I picked up this book because it was bargain priced at Barnes & Noble. Let me just say that I am happy that I did not pay full price for this book. I expected this book to be one of those books that would be tough to get through because of the topic but it would be worth it in the end. It wasn...
"Captivity does things to you. It shows you how base an animal you can be. How you'd do anything to stay alive and suffer a little bit less than the day before."One of my initial thoughts after finishing the book, and perhaps a subtext to the whole relevance of the plot, was how big of a role social...
I was instantly hooked when I started reading this book. The beginning was amazing and I just HAD to know what happened while the girls were down in the cellar and how it ended. I really enjoyed the concept and writing was okay (I wanted more detail, maybe a little gore considering what the girls we...
A fairly gripping story all the way through but, maybe, I’ve read too many books in this genre because I could tell what the big twists were long before they came. Some other elements of the story still surprised me so I’ll give the author credit for keeping me reading with interest. It felt a littl...
The Never List is a debut novel and unfortunately suffers from this, as despite its promising beginning, the story’s full potential is never quite reached. The horror is kept just enough out of sight – more implied than blatant – to make parts genuinely frightening, but something about the writing t...
The story started out very good, but then it took a predictable turn. After page 200 everything became a typical cliche. For instance, Sarah became the typical character that knows she shouldn't go after the killer alone, but goes alone anyways. And Sarah does this, TWICE! Way to annoy the hell ou...
**** 4 Torturous Stars **** I'm on a streak of reading some pretty messed up Psychological Thrillers and I had to pick this one up and take a ride! Likes The book was overall very good - but not fantastic and a "must keep reading" to find out what happens next.....until the end. I loved the s...
Not a bad thriller.If you've read books like Straw Men by Michael Marshall then I suppose there are similarities.The difference I suppose is that there are really two timelines in this book. The main character, Sarah, was abducted and kept captive thirteen years ago. Now, her captor is up for parole...
I got roped into watching Hostel when it was out a few years back. See, as much as I love the horror genre, I remember being absolutely disgusted with that movie. I just cannot stand the slow torture of individuals. Give me a slasher film or a movie about a ghost girl with long creepy hair any day. ...
Stupid and implausible plot. Don't worry if you don't like graphic disturbing stuff because there are little to no details about what is actually done to the girls. The only good thing is I read it quickly.
