Still Missing by Chevy Stevens!

Still Missing by Chevy Stevens

On the day she was abducted, Annie O’Sullivan, a 32-year-old realtor, had three goals—sell a house, forget about a recent argument with her mother, and be on time for dinner with her ever-patient boyfriend. The open house is slow, but when her last visitor pulls up in a van as she's about to leave, Annie thinks it just might be her lucky day after all. 

Still Missing interweaves the year Annie spent as the captive of a psychopath in a remote mountain cabin, which unfold through sessions with her psychiatrist, with a second narrative following the events after her escape—her struggle to piece her shattered life back together and the ongoing police investigation into the identity of her captor.

Still Missing is a shocking, visceral, brutal and beautifully crafted novel.



Audience: Adult (17+)


Review: 

Chevy Stevens doesn't disappoint. The first novel I read by her was Never Knowing and it was Amazing so intense. I finally picked this one up to read last night and I couldn't put it down. I mean I had to take breaks because it is that intense, but I still had the urge to pick it right back up and find out more. This book is told in present day and her talking to her psychiatrist. Each session is more intense than the last, and I know I keep using that word! But boy is it ever INTENSE!!! It made me angry, sad, smirk, and continued with the cycle. It's an emotional rollercoaster for Annie and the reader. I took breaks in reading to rub my face and calm my nerves but picked it up a second later. She transports you to this terrible time this character had to endure. Everything in it feels real. You feel, hear, and smell what she does. You feel her heartbreak day after day. AND to top it all off it has an even more messed up but perfect ending. Definitely a must read!! <3

Emma's TBR Pile...YIKES!!

Happy Wednesday everyone! I haven't done a full post in too long.  I got "stuck" on a book, so I'm feeling totally behind on my reading!  To make up for it, I figured I would show off my "to be read" pile, and tell you about some of the amazing books I plan to read in the near (ish?) future. I know right?  It's a happy TBR shelf :) (side note, my husband is not so thrilled that I've covered the board games with my giant piles, but he can deal.) You can see the full stack here, but I wanted to highlight a few that I'm really excited about/books that Kelsey hasn't already told you about. 1. ANNE+HENRY by Dawn Ius In this wonderfully “clever and compelling” ( Kirkus Reviews ) retelling of the infamous—and torrid—love affair between Anne Boleyn and King Henry VIII, history collides with the present when a sizzling romance ignites in a modern-day high school. Henry Tudor’s life has been mapped out since the day he was born: ...

Muffin Top By Avery Flynn Excerpt Reveal!!!

"Avery Flynn knocks it out of the park again!" - Tawna Fenske, USA Today bestselling author Muffin Top, a hot romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Avery Flynn is coming October 29th! The only thing about me that's a size zero is the filter on my mouth. I've got a big personality, a big rack, and a big number on the scale. And I'm perfectly fine with that. But when some random guy suggests I might not be eating alone if I'd ordered a salad instead of a hamburger I'm shocked silent, which is a feat, trust me. That brings us to one sexy fireman named Frankie Hartigan. He's hot. He's funny… And he's just apologized for being late for our "date" then glared at the fat-shaming jerk. Next thing I know, he's sitting down and ordering himself dinner. I have no problem telling him I don't need a pity date . . . unless of course it's to my high school reunion next week. Oops where did that last...
