Z_Brarian | Dec 12, 2022 |    ) emmy_of_spines | Sep 8, 2022 |  ) klcarmack | Nov 12, 2021 | This was a very dark, deep, and painful story of PTSD, psychological anguish, emotional and physical trauma, panic attacks, and shedding the label of victim. My gripe about this story is that I could not believe that every person in this girl's life was selfish, self-absorbed, and apathetic. There was no sympathy towards Jane, let alone empathy for what they have and are continuing to go through. The constant demand for the main character's love, affection, attention, even though it is detrimental to their own well-being, was mind-boggling. The so-called best friend, horrible. Mom and Dad, stereotypical cookie-cutter characters that were just so pushy. The author made an authentic, three-dimensional protagonist but did not do the same for the supporting characters. Everyone was just flat and straight-up cruel. Nobody matched the protagonist's memory or description which she would constantly reiterate how they were supportive and loving before she was taken. That was never showcased throughout the story upon her return and that was very frustrating to read.

HTML: Bestselling author Laurie Faria Stolarz's thrilling novel Jane Anonymous is a revelatory confessional of a seventeen-year-old girl's fight to escape a kidnapper??and her struggles to connect with loved ones and a life that no longer exists. Seven months. Locked in a room with a bed, refrigerator, and adjoining bathroom, I was instructed to eat, bathe, and behave. I received meals, laundered clothes, and toiletries through a cat door, never knowing if it was day or night. The last time I saw the face of my abductor was when he dragged me fighting from the trunk of his car. My only solace was Mason??one of the other kidnapped teens??and our pact to one day escape together. But when that day finally came, I had to leave him behind. Now that I'm home, my parents and friends want everything to be like it was before I left. But they don't understand that dining out and shopping trips can't heal what's broken inside me. I barely leave my bedroom. Therapists are clueless and condescending. So I start my own form of therapy??but writing about my experience awakens uncomfortable memories, ones that should've stayed buried. When I ask the detectives assigned to my case about Mason, I get an answer I don't believe??that there were no traces of any other kidnapped kids. But I distinctly remember the screams, holding hands with Mason through a hole in my wall, and sharing a chocolate bar. I don't believe he wasn't really there and I'm determined to find him. How far will I have to go to uncover the truth of what happened??and will it brea Ingen biblioteksbeskrivelser fundet. |

Then POV takes the reader on Jane's kidnapping journey. The horror inflicted on her; the budding "romance" with fellow kidnappee Mason. Is he real? Is he a figment of her imagination, pressing her to survive and find a way out, to escape? Or is it a mind trick
The author weaves a spellbinding tale of horror, suspense, fear, the desire for Jane and those around her, to find herself again or to discover who she is now. There were times that I put down the book, not wanting it to end, but then picking it back up to keep going, pushing Jane on to survive.
I liked how the author, right from the start, stated that it was Jane telling her story, in her way. Not through a therapist, or through her parents. She knew the only way to get the truth out was by putting it down in a book. Of course, it also begs the question, what memories were really/what memories were based upon the trauma she went through. Was it all real or was it a lie? (
