~*Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone*~
5 out of 5 stars! Sooooo good!
Who would have thought I would have so gleefully rooted for a sociopath? Then again this book may have you questioning who the real sociopath is.
We meet Jane, a self-diagnosed sociopath who goes to Minneapolis on a mission, a mission of revenge for her best friend Meg's suicide. There is one person she holds responsible for Meg's death and that is Steven. Steven is extremely religious, selfish,homophobic and chauvinist. He loves nothing more than preying upon sweet, insecure, weak women. Jane knows exactly how to catch Steven's eye, she will become one of those women. Changing her name, the way she looks and basically her whole personality she gets a job where he works and immediately catches his eye. Her plan is now in motion.
Told in first person we hear Jane's story as she goes about playing with Steven like a cat with a mouse. Jane is funny,smart and so easy to root for. Each and every word she speaks will lure you in deeper and before you know it you find yourself looking forward to spending more with Jane and anxiously awaiting her revenge on Steven.
Who is the true sociopath, Jane or Steven? I think for me it is definitely Steven. I am telling everyone I know to read this book!
This is one of the best books I have read this year and so far this has been a great year for reading. If you love well crafted physiological thrillers this is for you.
