Abandon by Meg Cabot
4.0

Pierce is living in her version of a hell hole: Isla Huesos or in English: Island of Bones. There with her recently divorced mom, she is struggling to keep up the facade of a normal life after her near death experience. However, when John, someone she saw in the other world, starts popping up randomly in her life, she fears that he’s not just there to mess around, or even to protect her.

I liked this story. No, it’s not my favourite by Meg Cabot because, in my honest opinion, it was semi boring. A lot of the story was all back story. What had happened in the past. I get that that was a big portion of the main storyline, but I felt it was placed at odd times and often times confused me as I read. Nonetheless, I did like the overall storyline, and plus, this is only the first book to the trilogy. Hopefully the second book is better than this one!
