The Detour by S. A. Bodeen REVIEW


Summary:

Livvy Flynn is a seventeen-year-old bestselling author whose YA fiction has sold all over the world. People in the industry kiss up to her. She's rich, she's famous, and she's full of herself.
When she's invited to an A-list writers' retreat, she decides to accept so she can work on her next book and enjoy the admiration--and envy--of the writer wannabes. Plus, she has a new, cute sports car, and it'll be fun to drive there by herself.
And then she hits the detour. Before she knows it, the car is wrecked, she's hurt, and she's trapped in a basement, with no idea where she is. A woman and her apparently manic daughter have kidnapped her. And they have no intention of letting her go.

My Thoughts:

I got this book for Christmas. It was published a couple months ago, I had read a few of the author's other books and liked them, I had even met the author at a TeenReaderCon. So I asked for it for Christmas, hoping it would be good.
Well, most of it was good. Everything was good, except for a really creepy guy.
But why did the woman kidnap her just because Livvy used a general idea that the woman had in her book, and unknowing that the woman had also published a book that apparently was almost identical to her's? Livvy only took a very general topic and somehow they ended up with similar stories. Livvy's was more popular so that person hated her for that. Which was a bit of a strange reason to kidnap someone over.

My Rating: 3 stars
