Just listen - first post

"Annabel Green is a girl who has it all- at least, that's how it seems on TV commercials. Annabel's life is far from perfect. Her friendship with cruel, dramatic Sophie ended on a night she can't bear to remember; her sister Whitney moves back home because of her eating disorder, making her moody and distant, she wants to quit modeling, but can't bear to tell her mom, and she is now an outsider at her school"



I'm reading the book JUST LISTEN. The story evolves around Annabel, a girl who used to be very popular. But that changed over "the lonely summer" as she calls it. I'm only in the beginning so she still calls the turning point "that night" but doesn't explain it further.


As far as I've got Annabel's described a bit of her school, some history with her ex. best friend Sophie, her family's problems and some of her own thoughts about everything that happened "that night". 

The author hardly describes anything that's happened before the book's start. Instead, you get to follow Annabel around and get small glimpses and clues of what have happened. The way she writes about "the thing" makes me think it's something really terrible. I hope I'll get to find out what it is soon because it's kind of frustrating but at the same time exciting.
