I hate to do this but I gave up on this book after the first story. I thought it had huge promise and then the conversations between the characters was just in my opinion not good.Emily moves into her first apartment getting away from her controlling parents. It's her first taste of freedom and she's all moved in and ready for her friend to move in before college starts. Having not unpacked she heads down to the soda machine for a drink. Unfortunately, for her she runs into a creep who gives her a hard time. Before she knows it she's ended up kidnapped. The conversation she has with the kidnappers and the other girls there felt so fake to me. No one freaked out. Even though there were unnatural things happening around them and to them they still all just said, this is illegal. I'm sure many kidnappers never realized that. It was so frustrating.Easy to piece together what was happening, one thing I couldn't figure out was Maria. She couldn't keep up or she was playing? I couldn't tell. Anyway, after a disappointing start I couldn't see myself finishing the other stories in the collection. Perhaps, someday I'll go back and try another story after I give myself some distance from this one. Perhaps, another series in the collection would be better.
