- I'm not telling you, stalker! :P
Have you ever read the Girl next door? I have, and I don't think I can sleep tonight.
I found this book in the library, and it seemed to really interesting. Now I wish I hadn't read it.
It's about these two girls whose' parents constantly move. They are eventually put in their aunt's care, who is a total a-hole. Actually, forget a-hole. It's hard to believe that she is even human.
David, the main character, befriends the two girls. He doesn't know that his aunt is abusing them. He's weak, intimidated, but righteous. So eventually, he finds out about the abuse when the aunt starts inviting the neighborhood kids to torture them.
It started with abuse, now outright torture. One of the girls, Megan, is constantly tortured. She's bathed in boiling baths, beaten, raped with coke bottles, starved, tied up by the thumbs, in other words, out right torture by the aunt's children, the aunt, and the neighborhood kids.
David, who's scared that he will get caught for ratting her out, doesn't do anything. By the time the police step in, it's too late.
Megan is killed. The number 3 was branded on her chest, the sentence, "I'm a prostitute and I'm proud of it" is branded on her stomach with a boiling sewing needle. The rest of the murder is so grotesque that describing it will make me kill myself now. I'm not even kidding, I swear.
And guess what? I had the privilege to find out that it was based on a true story. I don't think this will be something that I will ever forget. I'm sobbing so hard now, and this the first book that has ever done this to me.
It's so seriously disturbing, so seriously grim, and so seriously horrifying that the scenes will practically make you jump in fright.
I definitely don't recommend this book to anyone. It seriously makes me question humanity.
And Lyra, if you are reading this, you can now know that I know exactly how you feel.
