Ilustration In Pursuance Of Books Finding Zach (Finding Zach #1)
For five years, Zach Tyler, son of one of the world's richest software moguls, was held hostage, tortured, and abused. When he is rescued at last from the Venezuelan jungle, he is physically and psychologically shattered, but he slowly begins to rebuild the life he should have had before an innocent kiss sent him into hell. His childhood best friend David has lived those years with overwhelming guilt and grief. Every relationship David has tried has fallen apart because of his feelings for a boy he thought dead. When Zach is rescued, David is overjoyed--and then crushed when Zach shuts him out. Two years later, David returns home, and he and Zach must come to terms with the rift between them, what they feel for each other, and what their future could hold. But Zach has secrets, and one of them might well destroy their fragile love.Rating Based On Books Finding Zach (Finding Zach #1)

Wow..this book was one hell of a rollercoaster ride for me. I absolutely loved it. I wouldn't say it was too dark because i've read books way darker, but there where some parts that were hard to read. I just wished we would have gotten some more info on the 2 years that Zack was healing. I wanted to know everything. Zack was so fucking strong and he really had all my respect, what an awesome man. David was such a sweetheart..he tried to be what Zack wanted and needed..sigh.. This was anI must say this was a phenomenal book. I expected to bawl my eyes out but I only teared up a little at the beginning and at the end and it wasn't as angsty as I was anticipating. However, this book pulled my heartstrings like crazy and because of that, made me love it even more. ^_^Zach was held captive in the Venezuelan jungle for five years as, literally, a pet. When he's finally found, he's physically and emotionally messed up and because of that he can't even talk, having had to adapt to the
One of the things I liked about this book was that it surprised me several times, in ways both large and small. Given the abuse that Zach suffered, I thought the timeline was realistic. Years of therapy and residual PTSD were appropriate. I liked the fact that the guys reactions to each other weren't always predictable. They interacted in ways that carried both echoes of their past teen relationship and the stresses of their current post-major-trauma situation. This book was at some moments
What to say? Where to begin? The books I love always seem to leave me speechless! So it seems this is another one of those books. So I think I will just make a list of...my opinions: ♦ I read it straight through all in one day ♦ I had no idea what it was about before I started. ♦ I loved every word of it.♦ It was beautiful ♦ It was sad, but I didn't cry. ♦ It was angsty, but not too angsty for me. ♦ It felt real. ♦ Zach was stronger than anyone gave him credit for. ♦ David had the patience of
3.5 stars - 4 for the plot, 3 for the writing.In my opinion, this book sadly fell short of what it could have been. It had a lot of potential - the *story* was there. It just lacked the execution. I will definitely give credit where it's due - there were a few things I thought the book did really well. Both the opening and closing chapters did a great job book-ending the story. Zach's horrific imprisonment and dehumanization was definitely portrayed in an effective manner, and the ending left me
I've read it in one sitting and I've enjoyed it. I was in for the dark part. There are only a few scenes that are really dark, mostly memories. Overall it was a good one, it kept my interest, I enjoyed the main characters and the ending was pretty sweet.
When I first read this story I will admit I couldnt say I was entertained exactly by this book. More like horrified and fascinated by turns. Ill admit I spent the first part of the book with my hand over my mouth in shock most of the time.There may have been a tear. Or two. Its not like I should have invested in Kleenex for the amount of crying I did, but there were a few tears. Regardless of the tears, I was totally rooting for Zach, who was so much stronger than he thought he was, and hoping
