Rated An Untamed State 8/10

This is an incredible book - hard to read but also hard to put down. It's about a Haitian-American woman who gets kidnapped and held in horrific captivity in Haiti, and the effect it has on her. The writing is so good - powerful and emotional but very clear and controlled and and stark. I would love to be able to write anything like this.<br/><br/>Be forewarned: this book is pretty upsetting, one of the most intense and painful books I've read. For me it was worth it because it's so well-done, but go into it knowing what you're in for.
