Girl, Stolen (Girl, Stolen #1)

“Girl Stolen,“ by April Henry is the story of a blind teenage girl, Cheyenne, who is inadvertently kidnapped by a young boy, Griffin, who didn’t see her asleep in the back of the car. Griffin’s inexperience and his desire to please his harsh father leads him to bring the girl home, once he had found out she was blind. Cheyenne’s struggle to save herself puts a lot of tension in the actions within the book, particularly in light of the girl being blind. I found myself wondering how she could ever get free when she couldn’t see what and who was around her. Cheyenne is definitely a strong-willed girl in a difficult situation.

Though it is a story I’ve heard before, Author Henry does a good job, particularly in the second half of the book in keeping the suspense and action going right until the very last page of the book.

If you get this book, I think you’ll probably like it. I rated it 3-stars only because I have seen this basic story before several times.
