| 9:19a | Dreamland by Sarah Dessen Title: Dreamland Author: Sarah Dessen Copyright date:2000 Publisher:Penguin Group How many pages: 250 How long it took me to read: I started reading alittle on Saturday but yesterday I really sat down and finished it......3 hours Category: Fiction This book was purchased at:Barnes and Noble This book is: a book every girl should read! Other books by this author: That Summer, Someone like You, Keeping the Moon, This Lullaby, The Truth About Forever Favorite characters: Caitlin and Boo When and Where the story takes place: present Plot in a nutshell: Caitin wakes up one morning to find her sister gone. Her mother becomes depresses and think of nothing but Cass (her sister) Caitlin tries to do things that Cass has never or would never do. She feels that she can never live up toCass. She starts to date Rogerson, a drug dealer and after awhile he becomes abusive. Main Characters: Caitlin and Rogerson What I liked best: I like that Caitlin friends and family are really there for her but she can't see it. SHe just feels sorry for her self and thinks that everyone has forgotten her. They all want to help her but she just pushes them away. I also like that I had no idea what this book was about. I thought it was going to be this cute great love story but it wasn't and I still liked it! The book tell Caitlin's view. I think every girl should read this because I would hope that they would be smart enough to never let someone abuse them. I didn't know that the book was going to be about abuse. If I known I don't think I would have read it because I am totally not the kind of girl to let that happen to me so I would have been "oh what a dumb bitch. I thought it was going to be a love story, and it was, but with a twist. I am so glad I read this book because I got to see what Caitlin was thinking. Plus I know some one who was abused and I have always thought WHY WOULD SHE PUT UP WITH THAT SHIT! Caitlin showed me what she was thinking and why she did what she did. Not that I agree with her but I could see what she was going though and what she thought! What I liked least: I hated Rogerson when he started to hit Caitlin! I hated that her mother become so wrapped up with making Cass come home that she forgot about Caitlin over all rating: I loved it! It was like nothing I've read before. I really like the Author and want to read more of her books. |
