Just Listen

Just Listen, is a fabulous book. It was written by Sarah Dessen. This book is a realistic fiction novel. I chose to read this book because I have read a few of her other books and like her writing.

"Annabel Greene looked like the perfect girl, the one who had everything." She was a model, a popular girl,and she had the perfect family. It all began to fall apart when her sister Whitney almost died from a eating disorder. Then, when Annabel's best friend, Sophie, accuses Annabel of trying to sleep with her boyfriend, when he really tried to rape her at a party, things changed forever. When Annabel goes back to school in the fall she finds that her world has been shattered. Left as an outcast she sits alone at a wall outside with another outcast,Owen. While she studies him alot she never gets the nerve to go talk to him untill, Shophie causes a horrible scene, and Owen offers Annabel a ride home.....

I liked that you could not put this book down even if you wanted to. I enjoyed that this was a book you could easily relate to. If you liked Sarah Dessens, Lock and Key, you will love this book. This book was appropriate for ages 12+.
