A serial rapist is kidnapping teenage girls. But he’s not interested in just any teenage girls—only virgins. He hunts them by following their status updates and check-ins on social media. Once he’s captured them, they’re locked away in his sound-proof basement until they’re groomed and ready. He throws them away like pieces of trash after he’s stolen their innocence. Nobody escapes alive.Until Ella.Ella risks it all to escape, setting herself and the other girls free. But only Sarah—the girl who's been held captive the longest—gets out with her. Both girls are hospitalized and surrounded by FBI agents who will stop at nothing to find the man responsible. Ella and Sarah are the key to their investigation, but Sarah’s hiding something, and it isn’t long before Ella discovers her nightmare is far from over.

Dark Page Turner
Appetite for Innocence by Lucinda Berry was an intense and gripping read that kept me turning the pages late into the night. Berry has a way of pulling you straight into the psychological tension of a story, and this one is no exception. The plot is unsettling, emotional, and incredibly thought-provoking, making it hard to put down once you start.
The characters are complex and the storyline builds suspense chapter after chapter. Just when you think you understand what’s happening, another layer unfolds. It’s the kind of thriller that keeps your mind racing and makes you question everyone involved.
The only reason this isn’t a full five stars for me is the ending. While it wrapped up the story, it felt a bit too far-fetched compared to the realistic tone built throughout the book. Even so, the journey getting there was so compelling that it hardly took away from the overall experience.
If you enjoy dark psychological thrillers that keep you guessing, this one is definitely worth the read.
Solid
Would be 5 stars if the narrator wasn’t annoying.
