The Hollow by Jessica Verday



The Hollow by Jessica Verday

I give it 3.5 stars out of 5

Abbey's best friend Kristin is missing. Everyone else has moved on to believe she is dead and a funeral is underway, but Abbey won't lose faith that Kristin will be found alive. While at the funeral she meets the mysterious Caspian who is a couple of years older and seems to take an interest in Abbey's plight.

Based in the town of Sleepy Hollow and referencing the legend in the book you can guess where the title comes from. It was an enjoyable read knowing it is the first of a trilogy, without that knowledge I would have been terribly disappointed. I wonder if other reviewers that rated it more poorly just don't know there will be more to the story. If you enjoy the YA genre then you may find this to be a good read.

Language: mild to moderate language from the teens

Spiritual Elements: Moderate (can't expound without spoilers)

Sexual Content: None
