Honestly, I did not expect to get this invested in the story, but I was pleasantly surprised. The book doesn’t drag, the action starts pretty quickly and you’re hooked from the beginning. I found myself thinking about the book at work,…

This book was mind blowing! I was completely hooked from the very beginning. I'm not giving away any spoilers because what I'm about to reveal happens just within the first couple of pages. In this book we follow a 16-year-old girl named…

There are a lot of reasons to love this book, the biggest of which is the characters. Gemma and Ty are both extremely complex characters, and they seem to come alive, to walk right off the page. The writing is also beautiful. It contains…

Very meticulous on all of the descriptions throughout the book and slow-paced thriller lead me to become deeply invested in the characters and the plot-line.

I’m not sure why many reviewers found this book fascinating. Honestly, I felt it very repetitious and slow moving. As a matter of fact, I skipped several pages because it didn’t say much outside of why Ty came to the desert and how…

This book made me go on an emotional roller coaster. I hated Ty and then I wanted so bad for Gemma to love him and hook up with him. The book makes you feel stockholm syndrome youself, and when I reached the end, I cried so hard. I knew…

I read this book in a day and it made me cry like I never had before. I love how connected with the land they were, living in a complete rural environment, somewhere I wish I could be living. Every little thing had a story to tell, it all…

Right and wrong become blurred as do love and obsession in this intense, conflicting and gritty narrative written as a letter from Gemma to Ty.

Sometimes at night my brother snores too much.

I didn't want to keep reading this book after page 200 because I knew how this was going to end. I knew that if I kept reading it would break my heart. And it did. I hate it so much that I love it.

While I liked seeing Gemma constantly thinking of ways to try to escape, and I liked the slow revelation of Ty as a peculiar but artistic nature-loving soul, I found the premise extremely hard to swallow. Nevertheless, everything that…

This was a super good book!! I cried so many times while reading it. I normally don't like sad books, but this one was an exception. The book was so touching (it's the typical…

This book was really interesting. But be aware it is addicting. I was not able to put it down. I thought it showed really well that there is not always good and evil, it's not all black and white.

A wonderful book with haunting descriptions of the desert, and characters that make you hover between love and hate. I don't buy many books - I use the library. However, I'm going to purchase this one. It is a keeper!

This book will simply give you a tremendous urge to just leave the city, and society, and never return.

I started this because I found it on a list of fairy tale rewrites and someone suggested that it is a rewrite of Beauty and the Beast. It does share some similarities, but I am not sure if there are enough for that designation to be…
