Just Listen/Olive's Ocean (For last weekend and this Sunday)

    Coming to the end of Just Listen, Owen is Annabel's love. Well in music. Instead of having Sophie around Owen is there for her. Mallory (owen's sister) loves Annabel. I mean she is crazy for Annabel. Even her friends are loving Annabel. Annabel is a model and has appeared in a good sum of commercials. But there is competition around. She didn't get into an advertisement which her mother really truly wanted for Annabel. But she will try her best.

     Whitney is doing much better with her eating disorder. Mrs. Greene (Annabel's mom) put Whitney in therapy. Whitney thinks that therapy is probably the worst thing there is on the planet. Her therapist is telling her to grow a plant and see it grow. it sound preetty dub to me even. Kristen is off in colllege doing what she enjoys. Mrs. Greene and Mr. Greene are spending there anniversary spendig a weekend on a vacation. All is going well.

  
     Olive's Ocean is written by Kevin Henkes. The main character isn't Olive, its Martha Boyle. Martha was in Olive Bastrow's class. Olive was a quiet girl. She didn't have a lot of friends at the time. Olive was a new kid. She loved bike riding. But when anacciedent happens to Olive her family cries. Leaving a note from Olive's notebook states things about Martha and if they were both friends.

   Its summer vacation, 1 week from Olive's note. Martha thinks that its all her fault. Its sad what happened to Olive. But she cannot fix it. She wonders what Olive thought in her head about her. As the summer goes on she learns lessons. And she sees that life isn't all about being blind by whats out there. She experiences some ups and downs but she knows that she would've taken Olive with her on this trip. I cannot tell you what happened to Olive because that would be a unfair to the readers that haven't read this fantastic book. All in all, you should read this!
