The man who abducted her expects her to be part of his “family,” along with the other girls in the cellar.
Struggling to come to terms with what is happening, Summer is thrust into a living nightmare. When she goes to look for one of her friends, who has run off, she comes across a strange man who starts calling her “Lily.” While confused at first, and as hard as she tries to reassure him that he must have mistaken her for someone else, she eventually begins panicking when the man throws her in the back of his van and takes her to his home – and straight down into the cellar, where three other girls are waiting – Rose, Poppy, and Violet. One night, when sixteen year old Summer goes out with her friends for a night full of fun and promises of a good time that turns into a horrible nightmare that Summer will remember for the rest of her life. It was one of those books that messed with my head (and made me not want to go out by myself at night), and while I was happy (for the most part) with the way things wrapped up at the end, it kind of left me wanting more at the same time.
It was a good book – definitely a psychological thriller that lives up to its description. I heard plenty of mixed reviews about it, which caused me to put off reading it longer than I should have, but when my mom offered me her copy to read, I decided to give it a go. I’ve heard about this book a long time ago, and it’s been on my list to read for just as long.
