The Hollow is totally HOLLOW!!


Title- The Hollow

Author- Jessica Verday

Rachied Rating- 3 stars

Okay, so I thought that this book was going to be all cool and awesome. But it was so weird!! Here, I'll explain...



Abbey lives in Sleepy Hollow, yeah the REAL Sleepy Hollow. And just recently her best friend Kristen was declared missing. So, after three months of Kristen being missing, her family and the cops give up and decide to have a funeral with no body. Abbey is very mad, sad, and confused. She starts school with no best friend by her side to go to her first prom with, no best friend to fight off the bossy cheerleaders, and no best friend to talk to about her best friend dying.



During Winter Break, Abbey goes to her family's cabin before the holidays. When they come back her parents tell her that they found Kristen's body in the river where they used to play at as kids. While at Kristen's funerl, where there is her REAL body now she meets Caspian, a guy with snow white hair and a black streak through it (for some reason it totally scream emo to me :D).



Now, this is the crazy part, Caspian agrees to help find out why Kristen was down there and why she died and everything, and of course Abbey and Caspain get a little romance going. Then, it goes into their relationship more than why Kristen died, and then Abbey meets these old people that live in the cemetary and they turn out to be completely crazy. Then Caspian goes crazy, and then Abbey goes crazy. Finally, I go crazy because I'm like "WHAT!!?? WHAT HAPPENED TO FINDING OUT WHY THE GIRL DIED!??" Then the book ends

*******BEGINING OF SPOILER ALERT!!!!*******

with them not knowing what happened to Kristen and Abbey moves away!???!!

******** END OF SPOILER ALERT!!!************

SO, I did not like the book at the end or somewhat the middle. And, personally I think the author needs to re-learn hersixth grade and seventh grade English.
