Girl Stolen

Girl Stolen is written by April Henry and is about a girl named Cheyenne Wilder. She is 16 years old with pneumonia and she's blind. Back when she was 13 her and her mother were waking along an empty road, when 2 racing cars came and lost control running right into Cheyenne and her mother. Her mother flew far away from the scene since the impact was so harsh. Cheyenne bumped into a street sign and hit the back of her head, which caused her Brain to bounce off the back of her skull and caused her vision to go blurry.
           The beginning of the story explains how Cheyenne and her stepmother went to the pharmacy to pick up some antibiotics for her pneumonia. Cheyenne stayed in the car while her step mother went inside the store. Before her step mother left the car, Cheyenne begged her to leave the keys in the ignition. So her step mom did, in case Cheyenne got cold, she could put the heat on. A few minutes later someone came into the car, but Cheyenne used her other senses and figured out that that person that came into the car was far too loud. "Even the way the door closed hadn't sounded right. Too fast and too hard for Danielle. The breathing was all wrong too, speeded up and harsh", this is a quote from chapter one, paragraph four. It explains how all the little things Cheyenne could tell that it wasn't her step mother. Sooner or later the man in the car drove off, not knowing Cheyenne was in the back seat.
          Later on, the boys name was introduced, Griffin. Griffin took Cheyenne to his father and brothers to see what they should do. They found out Cheyenne's father was the president of Nike. They wanted a ransom in order for Cheyenne's father to get her back. But Cheyenne's fat her couldn't  give them the price they wanted in the little time he had. Cheyenne tried to escape many times, but failed each time.
          I personally love this book, I love the action and the story behind Cheyenne. Even griffin has a story about his mother. I recommend this book to anyone who likes a little bit of romance, action, and stories that make you never want to put the book down.
