Stolen [REVIEW]

Title: Stolen
Author: Lucy Christopher
Pages: 304
 

Summing it up: This is how it happened: Gemma is on a layover in Bangkok, en route to a family vacation in Vietnam. She steps away for just a second. To get a cup of coffee. Ty--rugged, tan, too old, oddly familiar--pays for her drink. And drugs it. They talk. Their hands touch. And before Gemma knows what’s happening, Ty takes her. The object of a long obsession, Gemma has been kidnapped by her stalker and brought to the Australian Outback. To sand and heat. Emptiness and isolation. Where he expects her to love him.

Reason I Decided to Read it: The summary sounded amazing and I liked how it was wrote, as if it was a letter.

The Good: I liked the way it was written; as if Gemma was telling Ty what happened. The writing was unbelievable – wonderful. The description could draw a picture in your mind. The characters were well thought out and real. Ty was my favourite, he isn’t as bad as he seems; he seems to know what true love is. Um, I'm pretty sure this story left me with Stockholm Syndrome.


The Bad: I hated the ending, I hated Gemma’s choice. It wasn’t what I would have chosen if I was her, but you can decide for yourself.
 

The Over-All: It isn’t historical – which it strange for me – but it is wonderful. Miss Christopher really knew what she was doing. It’s a great summer read and you should pick it up if you have the chance.

Other: There is some swearing, but I can’t remember what. There are some kisses too.

Rated: 5/5.
