Tolog Review: Abandon

Abandon
by Meg Cabot
reviewed by Irene Niu, class of 2015

This book is about a girl Pierce Olivia coming back from car crash. The most thing that bothered her is the fact that her parents are divorced and no one seemed to understand her. Pierce is moved to a new school and had to get familiar with new school. Cabot did really well on describing her social issues with others at school that were cataloged as kids having severe issues. However, a charming guy called John Hayden, keeps popping up in her life. Her crash over this mysterious and handsome guy and fear to get hurt were really very detailed ad captivate the reader in the book. For most people in her age, they are curious with first love but are also easy to get in trouble with friends and families. Pierce especially came back from death, she is still filled fear and unable to trust. This book also involves the social issue that exist in high schools since it was around this age people get isolated and sensitive. The one thing I thought was incredible was how the author vividly described emotions and actions through out the novel even in this tale story. Cabot didn’t give the readers a whole lot of recollection that can easily mess up one’s mind. The story is developing as she recalled her memories, the unfolding events in Pierce’s life, makes more sense and this character relatable to the readers. The mood in this book is little frustrating and full of memoires of past events.  To the people who has friendship, social, family, relationship issues. If you like to find someone who may share the same feeling and someone you can relate. If you liked sullen romance story of a charming mysterious boy and sensitive, delicate girl.
