Stockholm Syndrome (Stockholm Syndrome, #1) door Richard Rider
I *want* to like this, but the kidnap-ee is just so absurd. He's like a 'manic pixie dream girl' dialed up to 20. Almost a cartoon of a person. So I'm setting this aside. Maybe someday I'll give it another shot.
I sort of knew what to expect when I started reading, but I didn't expect to be so emotionally invested in the characters so quickly. Rider has a way with words, and with using them to paint a picture. It's visceral, which is sometimes very good and sometimes very bad, especially if you identify with the characters a bit more than you should.
I felt sort of dazed when I finished it, but in a very satisfying way.

Truly lovely, and oftentimes firmly tongue-in-cheek, little stories from two wonderful writers. There's a bit of variation in genres, with a few stories veering into light horror and paranormal fare, while others are more mainstream romance. The stories are varied enough that it's really hard to pick a favorite because they all stand out on their own merits. Some are a little bit darker, while others are very light and humorous, and other still are quite sweet.
If you're a fan of the genre, I absolutely recommend you check this out - you're bound to find something you like in it. And it's a quick read, I finished it in about six hours, and well worth a second or third re-read, in my opinion.… (meer)

Well all of my anticipation for reading this book was a waste of time!,,There was NO PLOT! just a whole lot of screwing around between a whiney brat and a militant fool. I could not even keep reading, so I have no idea if it got any better than where I left off at the half way mark.
So many great reviews and it was a flop of epic proportions. Needless to say I will not be finishing the trilogy...Reader beware...
