Najah+H's+Book+Review

===I have a diffrent view of the world, the way I see people and the way I will handle future situations, all from reading Nina Lacour’s book “Hold Still” which fallows a girl that struggles with the lose of her best friend’s suicide. It seems to me no one can enjoy a drama book that deals with high school girls. I disliked those books myself, but “Hold Still” somewhat changed my opinion. This is no ordinary drama. It is real and thought me a lot about life.===

===//Hold still was a book that lingers. It may have sounded gloomy bit it was anything but depressing. It’s about how new relationships grow out of a tragedy. This book was mostly about redemption, the way Caitlyn, the main character was going to live without her best friend by her side. She was frozen in time and was very painful. //===

===//Lacour describes Caitlyn as if she was real. She described all the character as if I can see them right in front of me. Those descriptive adjectives she used helped me paint the most detailed picture in my mind, like I can out everything they wore and did. I really got to know Caitlyn; you can even predict what her next move was or what she was going to do about a specific situation. You can feel what she feels, which made the book exciting, all the way threw. You always know what she is feeling. I did not miss out on anything. //===

==//Not only were the characters that made the book interesting. Also the plot of the book. It was not boring at all. The events that went on throughout the book really captured your attention and kept you entertained. As I got further into the story, the irony would really aggravate me. How Caitlyn would make a decision that you really would not expect. It got better when you expect something to happen or for the main character to make a specific decision, you get happy to know it happens. To me that is not boring. It ended up being a very well written story. //==

==//I would definitely recommend this book to others. It was very detailed, fun to read, and you do no have to be a patient reader. It is good especially to those who can relate to the main character. "Hold Still" by Nina Lacour is based on love, hope, and redemption. If more people read this book, more people could find hope in tragedies. //==
