Review: Unfinished By Carol Oates

Unfinished

Title: Unfinished
Author: Carol Oates
Published: August 13th 2011
Kindle Edition
Pages: 30









Goodreads synopsis:


Jonas is already raising eyebrows at his new school and Cathy's day isn’t going much better. Everyone is acting as if she isn’t there, her twin is usurping her friends and her occasional boyfriend is moving on. Can she convince Jonas to help her before it’s too late?




My Review:



Everyone has started to ignore Cathy including her twin sister Lottie and her boyfriend. Lottie has also started hanging out with her best friend Delia. Cathy does not like the fact that she is being friends with Delia. Getting mixed up with Delia will get her in trouble and possibly cause her to lose her life. She doesn't want her sister following in her foot steps.

A guy, Cathy has never seen before shows up at school. Cathy thinks he is cute and wonders why he acts like a nerd when he is not. Jonas doesn't ignore Cathy like everyone else does. Cathy needs Jonas' help to save Lottie. Jonas can't or won't help someone like her. He use to help people like Cathy and he lost everyone he ever cared about. Can Cathy save Lottie? Will Jonas help Cathy? You will just have to read Unfinished to find out. I don't won't to reveal any more spoilers and ruin it for you.

Unfinished is a very fast read not because it is a short story. It will grab your attention and keep it until the end. It is a very well written story. I would have like to have known more about Cathy and her sister's life together. More about Jonas and who he is.
