What a weird story.... 
 It starts as your usual abduction story. A teenager is abducted from her home; she will be brutally raped repeatedly and then sold to the highest bidder. 
 This is the first part of the book. 
 The scariest thing is that the abductor is her daddy's best friend and that he is highly imaginative when he rapes her (I will try to avoid eating cucumbers for at least the next month). 
 The second part of the book introduces War, who is the guy that has bought Baylee and he looks like every girl's wet dream. 
 27 years old, exceptionally good looking and filthy rich. Except that he has a few personal problems: 
 War is 
 1.	an uptight germaphobe 
 The germs are everywhere. The chance of things going wrong poke at me every second of every day. Images of endless possibilities of my death, torturous thoughts of infection infiltrating my life at every turn, and painful, awful ideas of how others could die inadvertently at my hands flit through my mind continuously on one bloody, disgusting loop. 
 2.	obsessed over numbers and statistics 
 How many hairs would she lose between now and the drive to my beachfront estate? 
 I start calculating her hair loss. If she loses an average of forty hairs per day, then that means she will lose one point six seven hairs per hour. The drive is just over an hour which means she could potentially lose two point oh nine hairs. But, if she loses more along the higher end of that spectrum of fifty hairs a day, that would mean she'd lose-- 
 3.	obsessed with patterns 
 He then heads for the sink where three soap bottles line the back. I watch with brazen fascination as he spends a good five minutes scrubbing his hands with all three soaps. 
 4.	afraid of blood and body fluids in general 
 What if I lost control and sunk my teeth into her lip? 
 Would the blood spray all over my white kitchen? 
 Would she bleed out all over the tile, saturating everything in its wake? 
 War does not want to be touched. He does not want other people to touch his things. He does not want to touch other people. 
 And apparently Baylee is his only salvation. 
 Needless to say, War is an extremely interesting character and the way he thinks is the highlight of the book. 
 Two are the mysteries of the book: 
 A)	Why nobody is looking for Baylee after she was kidnapped? 
 B)	Why is War like that? What happened to him? Judging from his memories, he appeared to be a normal boy until he was 18. 
 Baylee will be a girl lost between the men who have dominated her life until her 18th birthday: 
 i.e. HER THREE LOVERS 
 Her boyfriend 
 Her abductor 
 Her buyer AND 
 THE TWO FATHER FIGURES 
 Her father 
 War's father 
 I think I have been influenced by War, because even my review has patterns :) 
 Overall, "This is War, Baby" is an extremely interesting story and the start of an extremely interesting series.
