I'm convinced whoever recommended you this is cray cray.
She's not even angry about being kidnapped. Like you just gave up.
That's not my style.

Why did she not make an excuse while she was at batty Jans and try to find a phone? she had all day there !!

Exactly.!!!!
I would have knocked Batty Jan out with a skillet and booked it.


I wonder if it was because she was being motherly toward her and she'd never had that before?"
She acts like she doesn't need a mother. I don't care. It's all about survival in my eyes.
She is complacent no longer caring of leaving.

She's just caught him and Willow and she's jealous !!!!

Stockholm much???"
Noooo this can't be Stockholm already!!!
She didn't go through any of the stage.
From fear to acceptance!!!
I hate stockholm books that people call "love stories" but I thought about this.
What does Ginny really have at home? No one really pays attention to her. No one takes care of her, she takes care of all the bills and stuff. She is the grown up at home.
Here, she has position and power. She matters and belongs!!!
It's a freaking motorcycle club but she is not only a member. She is president's wife. Why, our little Ginny is Kit the First Lady.
I can see how this would be attractive to a lonely girl whose only real solace was the library.

Then I moved onto Shaun Hudson and James Patterson but always stayed in the horror genre, only after joining GR I moved onto other genres after my friend told me about this brilliant series she was reading (Twilight!)

But then I tried another YA book Life as we knew it on audio, and after that I was hooked on YA for ages!

I am not a psychologist or psychiatrist, but I will say that kids have a resilent spirit to adapt/cope etc.
this isn't the same but the my daughter left her favorite Beanie boo "sparkle" in the movie theater.
When we got home and called AMC, they couldn't find it. We told her "sorry sweat pea, but Daddy told you to leave Sparkle at home and you snuck her in your jacket pocket." Let this be a lesson to you.
15 mins later after they'd gone to bed. I could hear Sydney crying in her room, so I snuck to the door to spy/check on her.
She had assembled her other stuffed animals on her bed like some kind of Council meeting and was talking.
She said "I'm so sorry but Sparkle has run away and she is never coming back to us. I'm so so sorry." Then she sobs some more. I quickly left because the sh*t was funny but I didn't want to hurt her feelings, so I went and got my hsuband so we can listen to her.
Anyway, She was trying to find a way to make things okay in her mind. So instead of thinking "I screwed up and lost her at the theater". It was that sparkle chose to leave the fold :D
My point: I think in her mind Ginny/Kit was afraid they knew where her sister and her boyfriend lived. they threatened to kill her sister. Ginny/Kit knew they could do it because she knew they hurt people without a second thought. She is trying to survive best as she can and that involves coming to terms with her new life now.
Trying to escape and being caught may not be worth the punishment as Griz seems very unforgiving. She is so scared at the has kind of buring Ginny in her mind, and she is now Kit.

She said she missed Church more than Home because of the sense of peace. Also the feeling of unconditional love.
She didn't miss Delia.
how did he know she went to Church every sunday?
she keeps saying "Grizz KNEW EVERYTHING!"
Imagine that! I would be afraid too!

fight for what? Griz wasn't going to let her go. he might cut her tongue out too and still keep her. Sometimes patience and waiting is fighting too--fighting to live another day

It's weird, but he spends tme with her. He gives her attention, not just for sex, and listens to music with her. He tells her that he loves her. He treats her pretty well considering he is a monster.

If they mess up Daemon Black I'm going to be PISSED !!

Not Ginny: It's Gweeny or Gwennie
Ginny Lemon? Who is reading the book, can you spell her name for me please?

If I was anyone's DA I would go after all of them, Grunt included. I'm sorry it is not registering to me that she has a better life here. SO what, I still don't think she has the coping mechanisms that adults have even if she was doing ADULT things at home.




It's really good, it was my 1st YA book and I loved it, I re read it again early this year sometime, and I was really worried that it would spoil it for me, but I enjoyed it again!
The audio is good although the narrator is a bit whiny

all those men didn't mind climbing into bed with Moe, whom they called the motel ho. they treat her like trash but when she treats one person Grunt like trash...well, she's go..."
This is what I don't understand with Moe, she took Kit to the place where her horses are, so she obviously thinks about and probably misses home, so why doesn't she just leave?
