I might review my ratings for this book. Killing Sarai has left me in a mix of feelings - whether they are good or bad, they are unidentifiable. 
 This book was, in a twisted way, enjoyable. The characters here are not helpless and moronic - and that itself is a great great thing. The plot of this book explores the inner thoughts and mentality of a kidnap victim whom has been used and abused sexually. Sarai, to a certain extent, has long come to terms with her fate and yet, does not accept that her life ends right there on such morose terms. She sees her chances and escapes on the car of one of the most ruthless assassins she's ever met -(view spoiler)[ so good at his job, he can shoot without his hands or something - (hide spoiler)] call that stupid or desperate, your call. 
 Except, this assassin happens to take exceptions towards displaying his ruthless nature to one person - guess who. Not sure if I can accept that. Why, Victor turns all soft and mellow (OH, ALRIGHT, ONLY TO A CERTAIN EXTENT) in Sarai's presence. 
 This book was entertaining in its own right. As Redmerski writes about the type of people whom I have never, and probably will never, meet, I can't fault the actions and reactions of both the tired kidnapped and the cold-hearted Assassin. 
 The romance, if any, in this story is also twisted. For me, one shows a severe case of Stockholm syndrome. The other, well, develops a sense of protectiveness towards the other - heaven knows why. While both may be independent, courageous, (view spoiler)[and to a certain extent, adept at killing (hide spoiler)] I believe that these qualities are hardly sufficient for mutual affection to be based upon. Heck, the um, preference for each other, the way I see it, stems from the admiration of the similar qualities they find in each other. Again, I think that is kinda twisted. Then again, many may disagree with me. 
 On the whole, this book piqued my interest to the last of its pages. While I enjoyed the read, I can't really put a finger on what it is exactly that I enjoyed. If anything, the writing is pretty good.
