I can't really say much about this book because I am actually still reading it, bit it has me on the edge of my seat!! :)  Bree_Jay | Oct 30, 2009 |  Reviewed by Ms Bancroft (Language Arts) Caitlin falls for Rogerson Biscoe partly because she has become invisible to her family. Her older sister has intentionally gone missing and her family, once so perfect, has gotten lost trying to find her. Caitlin has little supervision and less attention. She finds Rogerson exciting and only realizes how dangerous when she is already immersed in a lifestyle she never would have predicted.I recommend this novel because it seems highly realistic. I suspect many teens could related to the issues it brings and maybe some could be enlightened about how to resolve these conflicts. (  ) HHS-Staff | Oct 20, 2009 | I did not like this book and would not have chosen it to read on my own. However it was written well in that it tied the title into the entire feel of the book with Caitlin always going back to her life as if it were a dream ever since Cass left and it all went downhill with the abuse, drugs etc. The characters were also believable and very realistic. I could picture them as any teen in any family going through the same things. I was disappointed with how in detail the author got with the drug usage. I wouldn't want to put this book in the hands of my students or my children any time soon. (  ) mrang | Jun 15, 2009 | Once I got past the introductions I couldn't put this book down. Sarah Dessen describes the feeling and emotions that Caitlin is going through like she has been there herself. It addresses a lot of problems that today's teen face when in high school. ( ) bdnech | Jun 14, 2009 | After Caitlin's sister, Cass, runs away to be with her boyfriend, Caitlin is left in her sister's empty footsteps.

| Descrição do livro |
|
Why do so many girls allow themselves to get into abusive relationships--and what keeps them there? In this riveting novel, Sarah Dessen searches for understanding and answers. Caught in a trap that is baited with love and need, Caitlin must frantically manage her every action to avoid being hit by the hands that once seemed so gentle. All around her are women who care--best friends, mother, sister, mentor--but shame keeps her from confiding in any of them, especially Cass, her brilliant older sister, whose own flight from home had seemed to point the way.
Dessen has here created a subtle and compelling work of literature that goes far beyond the teen problem novel in a story rich with symbolism, dark scenes of paralyzing dread, quirky and memorable characters, and gleams of humor. With the consummate skill and psychological depth that brought her praise for Keeping the Moon, she explores the search for self-identity, the warmth of feminine friendships, and the destructive ways our society sets up young women for love gone wrong. (Ages 14 and older) --Patty Campbell
