Man, what a good read. I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Im not normally into such realist fiction when it could potentially house some really awful things inside its pages. When there is kidnapping and potential terrorism then who knows what else it could hold, right?

Its a really interesting look into one girls experience with kidnapping, mental instability, Stockholm Syndrome, and first love. First love = stockholm syndrome. Its crazy all the emotions you feel for Chloe. At times you even want her love for her hostage taker to returned! And at the same time you cant help but feel horrible for rooting for them as a couple.

What I really like is how believable it is. I really feel like Edeet knows someone who has went through this or at the very least has went through a period of mental instability.

The ending is great and I cant decide if I really understand what happened with the whole kidnapping business or not.

The only tragedy with book is the cover. A better cover would result in it being on a lot more to-read lists. Dont you think?
