Why read it?
1 author picked Stolen as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This disturbing and sensual tale of a teenage girl kidnapped and held by an obsessive young man was something I had to read in a day. The writing has a kind of D.H.

From Patrick's list on teenagers in love and lust.
