Refects
When i first found this book i was looking really fast and i pulled this one out of a mystery section. I didnt think much of it but when i read th first 3 chapters i could'nt really put it down. I started off all weird and didn't really make sense but it got to be addicting. I think that this book would be fairly decent to and young adults that are interested in mistery and like to be suprised. I give this book a 81/2 on the scale of If I Had To Rate This Book On A Scale From One To Ten.

About the book
This book starts off with a girl named Christina Lattimore and her friend inside of a burger place when a guy named Zach is staring at them from the counter, which make it obvious that he, most likley, is going to be the guy to do the kidnapping. After that day things have been happening to Christina, like when she came home there was a piece of tape on the lock like to prevent the door from locking. She is soon druged and taken to a house and thrown in the basement. When the cops come the house she was already forced to take a bath and change and watch T.V. upstairs, which made it suspicious that this was no kidnapping. After all that, the cops have the place under investigation and there is not one thing to prove that the whole thing was a kidnapping. Now it look like she set this whole thing up and nobody believes that she didnt set up just to make some money to go to france so now she has to prove her innocence to everyone if she want to get out of jail.

Between a Rock and a Hard Place
The book i read was between a rock and a hard place. This book is about a guy who was pinned between a rock and a wall by the hand and he had to cut his own arm off with his pocket knife. Aron Ralston was a changed man after the day he could be one to say he had to cut through his arm with a worthless dull pocket knife and reppel down a 100 foot cliff.
Courage
This would be the word that i would describe this man. There would be no wy i could possible cut off my own arm in a thousand years.
