About this listen

Sixteen-year-old Cheyenne Wilder is sleeping in the back of a car while her mom fills Cheyenne’s prescription for antibiotics. Before Cheyenne realizes what’s happening, their car is being stolen. Griffin hadn’t meant to kidnap Cheyenne, but once his dad finds out that Cheyenne’s father is the president of a powerful corporation, everything changes - now there’s a reason to keep her. How will Cheyenne survive this nightmare? Because she’s not only sick with pneumonia - she’s blind.

Critic reviews

"Page-turning suspense with a clever heroine who meets up with bad luck, bad men, a bad dog, bad weather, bad health, and has to face them all without seeing them. A nail-biter." (Gail Giles, best-selling author of What Happened to Cass McBride?)
"A unique and clever premise. Cheyenne has to be one of the most resourceful heroines in recent memory." (Todd Strasser, best-selling author of Wish You Were Dead)
"[A] can’t-put-it-down crime thriller...constantly interesting and suspenseful." ( Kirkus Reviews)

Best Book I've Read Since Warriors

I just finished this book, and I'm amazed. The story was action packed and intense.

Machine narrative

Sounded like a machine reading. Predictable plot not super great. Would not read another like it from this author.

Narration sounds like AI

GRADE: B-
3.5 stars

Resting in the back of her stepmother Danielle's car, Cheyenne is carjacked from outside a pharmacy. Griffin never meant to kidnap her, he wouldn't have stolen the car if he new Cheyenne, sick from pneumonia and blind from an accident three years prior, huddles under a blanket. When his father Roy learns Cheyenne is wealthy, the accidental kidnapping becomes a ransom situation and all bets are off.

I read GIRL, STOLEN in one sitting. April Henry held my interest with this even-paced novel. Chapters alternate from Griffin's and Cheyenne's third person points of view. I usually prefer first person narratives, but Henry did a great job letting drawing me in. Griffin and Cheyenne were interesting and likable characters. Some of Cheyenne's abilities to fight back felt unrealistic, not because of her blindness, but because she had no self-defense training and any kidnapped teen would have to be terrified.

GIRL, STOLEN is a fun read, but not very memorable. I got it for $1.99 at Amazon. I'll probably read the sequel, but not until the price comes down.

Would have been 5 Stars without the foul language

Intense and suspenseful. Have enjoyed this author's books. However, sure do wish she would leave out the foul language. She spares us many other gory details while keeping the story intense and suspenseful, but does not spare us the foul language. There are many ways to allude to foul language without exposing us to it, such as "he spat out a curse" or he muttered foul words under his breath". The funny thing is I have never heard a reader say "I just couldn't enjoy the book because it didn't have enough foul language in it." Or "the book just didn't have enough foul words in it to make it seem realistic." However, there are many readers like myself who appreciate and prefer to read books written without foul language. I will defer to authors who choose to leave out the foul language.

Sophomoric

In style and story. Had to quit shortly into it. I usually hang in much longer and rarely quit a book but this sounded like it was written by a teen fantasizing.

Excellent storyline

The storyline was excellent, somewhat suspenseful, and educational. I think a different narrator is called for. Her Irish accent came through and was slightly diverting.
