The storyline was very interesting. I wouldn’t have thought that the story would actually give of glimpse of  each girls life before the kidnapping and during. And even to the point where no one even knew they lived in that house, on a street full of neighbors. 

One neighbor being a newspaperwoman, Miss Metropolitan. Surprisingly, the storyline doesn’t give as much from her as I’d expected. Just a little, which was disappointing. 

Though graphic in detail, I’d preferred a different writing style. Some parts of the story didn’t make much sense and seemed to have been there to “fluff” it a bit. And the ending fell very flat. 

Overall, I enjoyed learning of the girls upbringing, which have an understanding of who they were before Boss Man came along.
