A review by ndari
Gone by Lisa McMann

3.0

3.5 star.

Err, this book disappoints me a bit.
I don't like it when Janie was being selfish, when Janie couldn't make up her mind right, when Cabel was being moody, when Dorothea was being the spotlight (I hate women who drink a lot). I was like, what the hell? Why do they have to act like this? It was like reading a book about a bunch of girls who are suffering their PMS period! Duh!

Back to Gone. Eventhough there are many things that I dislike as I mentioned above, I still love the story. Especially how we know who her father is. It is a pleasant surprise, knowing that her father does exist, and between he and her mother there is love. I kind of adore Janie's father, because in my mind he could be a perfect father to Janie if he had more time.

Anyway, it is sort of humiliating but I want to declare that I CRIED when I read this book. I thought about Janie's future, Janie's relationship with her odd parents, and how Cabel responds to Janie's condition if she chooses to be a dreamcatcher and still with him forever. Aww, can't help but falling for Cabel!

And ah, did I mention that I love Captain Fran Komisky? :)

Okay, I will stop ranting over this book. But there's one thing that I can't figure out till now. Is it me or there is any cliffhanger in the end of the book? Is there any sequel or what?
