What do readers think of What Doesn't Kill Her by Carla Norton? Write your own review.

This book is categorized as a thriller, but I was not on the edge of my seat as I was reading. The main character, (also in the book Edge of Normal ), Reeve LeClaire, is a survivor of an abduction that took place when she was 12. The book is a continuance of Reeve's readjustment. It seems disjointed , and the pacing is all over the place. It's not a terrible story, it just didn't hold my interest.

The plot is well worn among mystery thrill writers. Girl kidnapped and tortured. She escapes serial killer who is sent to mental hospital. He eventually escapes and the chase is on. It stretches my credibility that after enduring torture and abuse a young girl can repair her psyche enough to be willing to hunt for her torturer herself. However that said the book is well written. It is a quick read on a rainy afternoon. The plot is nothing new but the book held my interest. No gory scenes so the book would be ok for young adults an older.
