Capture Candy Composed By Kevin Brooks Available In PDF

really need to review these books right after I read them, . . because I can't remember crap, Now why did I give this one a B Perhaps I should change it, Oh because it was British. And anything British automatically gets a B in my book, But, looking back on it, the fact that it was British was really the only thing Candy had going for it,

It's a trendy book, Does that make sense I can see this book becoming really popular, with people saying that it really targets a younger audience.
What with it's adressing of drugs, sex, . . and music! Ha. I couldn't resist music hee. Because, when you really look at this book er read this book, it's the music that it comes down to, The music that drives Joe, It drives him to help Candy kick the habit, No, I don't remember.

But, um, the book was an okay read, It's like a snack in the meal of life, This isn't a book you'll remember years down the road, It's not going to be a classic, It'll fall back into the dusty shelves of unread literature after a while, I think it's a good book for younger readers, . . not children. But teens that don't want to put a lot of effort into reading, There we go, it's one of those books, It doesn't take a lot of effort to read and it can probably grab your attention if you are a teenager that sort of.
. . coasts through life and you don't enjoy reading but you need a book to read to do a book report on for your English class.
If that is you. This book is for you,

Yeah. Fuck, I'm tired. I liked this book. It had a lot of suspense and is a quick read once you invest the time in it, I wish the ending had been less vague, . makes me wonder if there will ever be a sequel, If I could give this book a,I would, but since I can't I'm settling with a, Candy can be addictive

Loves Another Drug
A Book Kevin Brookss Candy

Its hard to imagine life without Candy.


Addiction is a word most of us are familiar with and all of us have his/her vices, fixes we hanker for from time to time.
But how powerful can an addiction be and how far can we go to satisfy this burning need

Joe Beck is your average fifteenyearold teen living a comfortable life in the suburbs of London he gets by in his school studies and cares pretty much about his music playing bass for a band with some boys from his school called The Katies.


But his boring, uneventful life will turn upside down on a simple trip to a doctors appointment in the city, the day he turns the corner of the street and meets Candy he instantly falls for her.
It seems like your usual boymeetsgirl setup, but as Joe gets to know Candy and enters her life, closer, the more he becomes obsess and longs for her, he is initiated into the London underworld of drug, violence, and prostitution, the closer he gets in the way of danger.


In Kevin Brooksnovel, Candy, he gives us a view of what forms addiction can take, dealing with one of the most pernicious kind there is: drugs.
In a turbulent journey of a love story told from an innocent boys point of view, we get to see the struggles of Candy, the titular character, who wants to break free from the drugs devastating hold and the miserable life it has lead her into, selling her body in order to feed her addiction.


Joes world suddenly takes a dramatic change not in the way he expects it to be once he meets Candy.
At first he seems uncertain about her feelings for her, yet as the novel progresses it becomes more than just the typical teenage crush.
He becomes hooked to Candy, his addiction more powerful than drugs can effect and hell do whatever it takes to pluck her out of the nightmare she is living.
However, the road to redemption has its price and the

way is fraught with peril and difficulty to keep them from each other.
Still, its a chance that they are willing to take,

The love, passion, fears, and brutality of the story keeps you wanting more, The rush of all the emotions that sweep over you as you are turning each page, gives you a craving for more Candy.
Kevin Brooks wants you to feel what it would be like in Joes position, He makes you wonder, thinking to yourself “What would I do” This shockingly, twisted love story, raw in its telling, compulsive in its stark painting of reality, will not only take you on the edge of your seat, it is equally evocative in its tender moments of what it feels like to be young, naïve, and in love.

See this review on my book blog sitelink Dark Chest of Wonders and for many others.
Give me the strength not finish books,
Nothing happened in this, there was no character development, no reason for the mc to be so hopelessly in love with Candy.
The writing sucked. Here's the climax: "it was just so, . . I don't know. Just so much. " I decided to read “Candy” by Kevin Brooks because it said it was about a boy who is obsessed with a girl and i found that really interesting.
The book is about a boy named Joe who meets a girl named Candy and is instantly fascinated by her he likes her.
I guess you could call it love at first sight, But there is a catch, Candy isnt your typical or average girl, Most boys if they liked her would Immediately want nothing to do with her when they find out what she is/does and what her life is like.
Joe isnt like that. He doesnt bash her or put shame on her, he wants to help her, make her a better person, and get her out of the situation that shes in.
He wants to remind her who she is again, how her life was like before even if that means jeopardizing everything like his own life.


One thing I liked about this book is one of the themes, Courage. Joe was willing to do anything to save Candy from whats shes dealing with/going through, he was very determined, Like they say, you dont walk away if you love someone, you help them, See, Joe couldve just let Candy keep suffering but since he loved her, he didnt and thats what I like about him as a character.


One thing I didnt appreciate was how Kevin Brooks worded a part of the summary on the back of the book.
It states, “It starts as an attraction, a crush, . . and then turns into something more like an obsession”, When I read this part while trying to figure out a book to read, I thought Joe was going to be a psychopath.
I thought HE was going to be the one violent to Candy, I wish Kevin Brooks didnt exaggerate so much because in the book I wouldnt consider Joe obsessed with Candy , he just admires her and wants to learn more about her.


I recommend this book to teenagers young adults because themain characters are aroundyears old and I think its important for teens to be informed on substance abuse and real life problems that people go through in our world today.
The situations in this book are definitely crazy, unbelievable and eye catching, .
