![]() ![]() Along the way, Stone, through main character Jane, has amazingly insightful commentary about how men all too often treat women in ways that denigrate women. He ended up making her feel worthless, and she died. ![]() ![]() Meg, her best and only friend, committed suicide after being abused by someone she loved and thought the love was mutual. In the first book, “Jane Doe,” Jane takes a leave from her important and well-paying job in Malaysia and returns to Minnesota, where she went to college, to avenge the death of her best friend. He likes that she’s calm and rather unemotional because of his upbringing, and she realizes that she likes some stability and knowing that there’s someone there to count on, someone who “gets” her. (Spoiler alert for the first book) While Jane never thought she’d have a boyfriend, she and Luke fit together well. She also gets the benefit of kinky sex with her boyfriend Luke. She’s also having a great time screwing over the associate lawyer she works with and having lots of sex and eating scrumptious food, but the associate lawyer deserves everything he gets. Because while the main character Jane admits she’s a sociopath and doesn’t have the emotions and feelings that “normal” people have, in both books she’s out there doing good things and righting wrongs.ĭon’t get me wrong. Chilling but also thrilling and - ironically - touching. Both “Jane Doe” and the sequel, “Problem Child,” by Victoria Helen Stone are chilling novels. ![]()
