Still Missing by Chevy Stevens is a far out story about a lady realtor named Annie who was abducted and kept locked in a cabin for a year! I didn't much care for Annie because of how she treated people and her frequent swearing but liked her relationship with her dog! This book did bring out some strong emotions in me: I felt sorry for her, anger against her abductor and disappointment in Annie.
The novel is told in the first person by Annie as she reveals what happened to her through her sessions with a psychiatrist. The things she went through with “The Freak” who abducted her were just sickening. I must say that I found this to be a very disturbing read rather than an enjoyable one. Even though she did finally escape, she never got back to her old self because her experiences had such a long-lasting effect on her. This book is a bit of a mystery and deals with issues of friendship, betrayal, motherhood and creepiness.

Wow, Oh Wow! Page turner, riveting, compelling--all these words apply to Still Missing by Chevy Stevens. What an awesome read!! For sure this is the book of the month for June for me and very high in my top books of the year.
Still Missing is about Annie, a realtor who is abducted for a year by a man she calls "The Freak." It is told by her as she goes to a psychiatrist. She talks about her relationship and what he made her do and her family in detail. Even when she is free, is she really? The ending of this book is probably the best part--you will not believe it!
If you do not read this book, you are missing out big time!

I was in the minority of this one, I thought the author was far out with her thoughts on this one, totally unbelievable so I couldn't enjoy it as much as you and many others.
ReplyDeleteI had a similar reaction to yours! It was very good, and very powerful!
ReplyDeleteOooh, this sounds fantastic! I'm adding this to my TBR list. I've been on a YA kick recently and could use a good adult read!
ReplyDeleteMarce: Gerard and I differ in our opinions on this book. I agree with you, wasn't very believable.
