Ray Savedraw savedraw — Originally on From Book to Hooked. Review on blog: 4.5/5 stars When I had first read The Hollow, dropping half a star would have never crossed my mind. Now, after having gone over the story again to write my review, I can say there are a few minor flaws. In any case, this is an amazing love story from the debut author, Jessica Verday! While Abbey struggles to come to terms with the death of her best friend, Kristen, rumors surge that her death may not have been an accident. Then, on the day of Kristen's funeral, Abbey meets the mysterious Caspian who shows up out of no where and makes her feel special. When Abbey's just beginning to feel normal again, she discovers secrets that make her question every thing she knew about her best friend, her emerging love for Caspian, and her sanity. This story has such a unique and yet timeless plot. For one thing, the story is centered around "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," which you can read here (it's Public Domain). The Hollow also has almost a star crossed lovers thing going on, but telling you why would ruin the ending of the book. Abbey was kind of refreshing as protagonists go. She was very different, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading from her point of view. You could really feel her emotions through Verday's writing, and I loved every minute of it. Caspian is a swoon-worthy character. He's definitely got the charm down. Most of the other characters only had very minor roles. The Hollow suffers from a small case of disappearing parent syndrome, but I can't say I'm entirely complaining with this one. Kristen was mentioned, but was obviously not featured seeing as how she's no longer alive and all. Now, the reasons I only gave this book 4.5 stars. For one thing, I felt the characters didn't develop much. Even with the addition of two more books, I felt they should have developed at least a little more. Another thing that affected this book was that no questions were really answered. None of the mystery surrounding Kristen's death was really unraveled. Most of the story was focused around Caspain and Abbey's relationship, again not that I'm entirely complaining. I feel, again, though that there should have been a little more reveal, even if there are two more books in the series. The question that was answered, however, recieved a reaction similar to "HOLY HECK!" My heart went out to the characters at that moment. So, I am beyond reeled in and ready for the next book in this trilogy!

Andrea Carolina andreacarolinarc — I am actually sad that I finished this book last night. It was not at all something I thought I'd like: a sci-fi-ish book where 24 kids are sacrificed each year at the "Hunger Games," a battle to the death. However, it was one of the most compelling books I've read in a long time. I loved the main character and couldn't wait to read about her daily adventures. There were times at night when I knew I should quit reading, but I just had to read "one more chapter", which turned into 3 or 4. The book has a sequel, which I will definitely await. For those of you unsure, it's a little Harry Potterish at times (weird character names, fantastic elements), but there is also much realism and parallels to our world. Worth a try for anyone!
