Summary: Caitlin's Story
Comment: With a blend of love, hatred, loss and renewal the book Dreamland is told.
On Caitlin O'Koren's sixteenth birthday, her sister Cass was gone, a runaway. Caitlin's older sister was perfect it seemed and she was on her way to Yale. Caitlin's family cannot understand why Cass left. Caitlin has always been in her sister's shadow and is also shocked. Sad and alone, she only has her best friend Rina and her family-although her family is busy trying to win Cass back and Rina is busy with her own life. Then Caitlin meets dangerous and mysterious Rogerson, an abused teenager who takes Caitlin in and loves her like no other. Then, though, as they grow closer, Rogerson starts to beat Caitlin.
Will Caitlin ever get out of this abusive relationship? Will her sister return home? So many questions keep you rivited until the conlusion where you beg for more.
I loved this book. This book is wonderful and thought-provoking. Everyone always thinks they'd have the sense to get out of a abusive relationship, but this book asks you the ultimate question that everyone tries to forget-What if the person you loved the most was the person hurting you?

Summary: Another wonderful book by Sarah Dessen
Comment: This is the 3rd Sarah Dessen book I've read and it was the best. Following close behind is Someone Like You. Then her first book, That Summer, which didn't blow me away nearly as much as the other two.
Dreamland is about so many things--Caitlin's sister running away, Caitlin's downward spiral into drug use, her abusive boyfriend Rogerson, her friendships with Rina and Corinna, her bond with her next door hippie neighbors, and so much more.
The things I like about Dessen's books is that they are so incredibly realistic. You can relate to these people. The characters are so developed, the scenes so believable that you can SEE them as you read. Her way of writing allows a movie to run in my head, I can see these people, hear them, feel what they feel. No author has ever made me experience that before.
This book made me laugh and cry and most of all, think. I am still thinking about Caitlin today.
